Alistair opens up, and Eddie has a controversial suggestion.
Dan takes Alistair for a picnic and a walk along the river in Felpersham. It's supposed to be a treat, but it also gives Dan the opportunity to talk about Alistair's gambling addiction. Alistair's annoyed that Kenton told him, but Dan explains that he was only defending Shula. Alistair had thought he'd won back Shula's trust, but now wonders if their marriage ever really recovered. Later Dan explains to Shula that he is finally starting to understand the breakup - he's learned a lot since Sunday. But Alistair still doesn't deserve Shula's cold and unfeeling treatment. That must change if Shula wants to make things right with Dan.
At Grange Farm Will's planning a special evening to mark Jake's return. Clarrie and Eddie worry that he isn't giving Jake space to grieve. But Clarrie is shocked when Eddie suggests that Jake staying with Andrew for a while longer might be for the best. She argues that the last thing Will needs now is to lose Jake as well. But Eddie remembers losing his own mother - Joe re-cast her as a saint and it interfered with Eddie's own grief. Will returns from a shopping trip with the news that Jake won't return until Sunday. But he isn't upset - he's still convinced that Jake will soon be back where he belongs.
