Alice faces a big decision, and old wounds open for Ian.

Alice and Ian are talking about the joys of having children, and how Xander has landed himself the part of a disorganised Angel in the Christmas show. Ian hopes the teachers don鈥檛 think it鈥檚 based on him and Adam. Ian tells Alice that he鈥檚 decided to stay on at Grey Gables until they find a replacement for him. He then asks Alice about Harry, and she tells him it鈥檚 going well but to keep it to himself as Chris doesn鈥檛 know yet.

Later Ian and Adam are talking about Xander, and how Adam wishes Jennifer could be there to see him. Adam tells Ian at bedtime that Xander mentioned all the Mummies and Daddies were coming but he didn鈥檛 have a Mummy, only two Daddies. Ian worries about being the only same-sex couple at school and always having to come out. Adam tries to reassure him and tells him that they don鈥檛 have to always come out. Xander just needs to know that his Dads love him and each other.

Tony and Lilian chat about Justin and Tony reveals he thought Justin was smarmy rather than charming; Justin鈥檚 only well behaved when he wants something. Tony never understood what Lilian saw in him.

Alice and Lilian are catching up in The Bull when conversation turns to Harry. Alice says that she wanted to tell Chris, but when it came down to it she just couldn鈥檛. She realises she should tell Harry about her alcoholism, as she鈥檇 prefer to know if it will scare him off sooner rather than later.
