Shula faces some home truths, and Philip feels spontaneous.

To stop Kirsty fretting about his interview with the police, Philip has invited Helen and Roy round for dinner tonight 鈥� he鈥檚 cooking a curry. Once dinner is served, Philip suggests that he and Kirsty have stag and hen nights. Roy asks if Philip wants to invite any family to his stag night. When Philip says it wouldn鈥檛 possible with them all in Wales, Roy asks about his nephew, Blake. Philip explains that he鈥檚 not actually Blake鈥檚 uncle, but he told the hospital he was so that they would allow him to visit.

The atmosphere grows tense with Roy refusing to drop the subject of Blake. When he asks about Blake leaving hospital, Philip explains it was safer to be there than having Blake walk out on his own and that he鈥檚 now in Norfolk with his parents. Kirsty grows angry with Roy, and he apologises for ruining the evening. Later, Kirsty can鈥檛 believe Philip鈥檚 compassion for Roy.

Shula is sticking very closely to Jakob鈥檚 weight-loss programme for Amir and Aziz. Shula鈥檚 impressed that Kenton recognises Amir. In a change of plan, Kenton interviews Shula as a practice for her Bishop鈥檚 Advisory Panel instead of Alistair. Initially Kenton鈥檚 impression of a bishop puts Shula off, and then she struggles to describe her strengths. Kenton tells her she鈥檚 imaginative and kind. When they move onto weaknesses, they descend into a row and Kenton leaves.
