Oh, Molly. She threw her arms around Matt's neck when he picked her up and he closed his eyes for a short moment to just hold her, the I love you immediately put into her head, a soft reminder that he hoped she'd never forget, no matter what happened. She nodded mutely against his shoulder and hugged him a little tighter.

When Mohinder thought at him, he looked him in the eyes as he stroked Molly's hair. He did listen. These were things he already knew, but he did listen even if he didn't say anything. It struck him how much of a family they really were and how much they all mattered to each other and when Mohinder looked away and his plea became verbal, Matt went up to him still with Molly in his arms, unfolded one and hugged him.

Molly followed suit. There was something melancholy about it, but it was a group hug they all needed. Just the moment of physical connection.

"I'll be fine", he assured them. "Just take care of each other for me, okay?"

There was something slightly hollow about that. It seemed emphasized when the CDC lady and her military buddies entered shortly after that and Matt let his family go to give them the mental order. He tried to root it deep, leaving no room for arguments or doubts. That'd come later, but never from these three.

There was a short moment of silence before she spoke. "Ready, Doctor? We got to go."
