Things are hotting up in the kitchen for Adam before some shocking news arrives.

At Honeysuckle Cottage Adam cooks a Sunday roast dinner for the family. He and Alice chat about the fabulous time their mum seems to be having with Lilian on their break in Stratford-Upon-Avon. Kate arrives with exciting news: Jakob has booked her tickets to Durban to visit Noluthando and Sipho. Kate thinks it鈥檚 to make up for Jakob being away so long and leaving her with Erik. She goes next Saturday. She鈥檚 struggling to get someone to cover her work but will cobble something together. She needs to see Noluthando, who鈥檚 staying with Lucas for a while. She wants to be able to comfort her after her split from her boyfriend.
Brian鈥檚 dropped in on Justin before supper, and the two compare notes on managing solo for a few days. They move on to talking shop, with Justin trying to persuade Brian a new disc drill鈥檚 a good idea all round. Brian soon loses track of time. He spots a missed call from Alice, and makes to leave. Justin鈥檚 phone then rings. It鈥檚 Lilian.
Back at Honeysuckle, Adam gives up on his dad and dishes up. Kate waxes lyrical about the delights of South Africa as the work goes on around her. They鈥檙e interrupted by a call from Brian. Jennifer鈥檚 collapsed and is being rushed to hospital. The siblings dash off to join traumatised Lilian in A&E, and she updates them as best she can. When Brian appears it鈥檚 clear they鈥檙e too late. The hospital did all they could, but her heart wasn鈥檛 strong enough. Jenny鈥檚 gone.
