Pat and Roy discuss their counselling session. Roy starts to explain more about the day his wife Doreen and his baby daughter died - he confesses that he was not out working but was with another woman.

Dan invites Carol and the kids to Southend for the weekend, to give them all a chance to get to know each other. Carol, impressed at his consideration, replies she'll think about it. Carol calls the family for a meeting. She tells Robbie and Sonia that she's got their old house back and can live together once more. Carol then tells them about Dan's offer of a weekend away in Southend. Sonia isn't pleased.

Terry gets information on the menopause from Doctor Fonseca, who suggests he drop by the surgery for some literature on the subject. Terry woos Irene on the karaoke.

At home, Pat consoles Roy - "I'm your best friend Roy, I always will be. No matter what went on in the past. Now stop punishing yourself, you're not to blame". Roy's reply stuns Pat - "I'm a bad person …when my wife and baby daughter were dying I was with another woman, having sex".
