Freddie is setting the stage for Valentine鈥檚, and Ruairi is making a pact.
Freddie鈥檚 DJing at the Young Farmers鈥� party at The Bull, with Noluthando as his sidekick. Freddie introduces her to Paul, explaining that Paul and Ruairi went to the Hunt Ball together. When Noluthando presumes they鈥檙e an item, Paul says it鈥檚 not like that.
Later, Noluthando tries to fix Freddie up with one of Paul鈥檚 friends who鈥檚 been checking him out. Freddie says he hadn鈥檛 noticed, but Noluthando encourages him to ask for her number. After some persuasion Freddie agrees.
At the Nest, Alice tells Ruairi that Brian鈥檚 missing him and suggests Ruairi contact him. Ruairi swiftly changes the subject. Alice encourages Ruairi to go to the party at The Bull to take his mind off Julianne, but Ruairi would rather stay in with Alice. Anyway, the last time he went out he ruined the night by trying to kiss Paul. Alice says she鈥檒l go with him then. Ruairi鈥檚 awkward when he bumps into Paul there, but Paul says it鈥檚 good to see him; they鈥檙e still friends. He drags Ruairi onto the dance floor.
Later, Ruairi thanks Alice for encouraging him to go out. Alice opens up about finding things difficult with Brian. He won鈥檛 make any decisions about the funeral and Kate and Adam are struggling with him as well. When Alice says she鈥檚 heading off early, Ruairi says it must be difficult being sober around people who鈥檙e drinking. Ruairi suggests leaving too so that they don鈥檛 end up bobbing around on the dancefloor on their own to 鈥楲ady in Red鈥�!
