Azra makes an emotional confession, and Robert tries to pick up the pieces.

Azra鈥檚 organising food and her children indulge in some low level bickering. Khalil doesn鈥檛 understand why he still can鈥檛 participate fully in Ramadan. He leaves to take Monty for a walk. Lynda feels for him. Zainab tries to cheer Khalil with the news that the insurance will cover their damaged tech items. Khalil can鈥檛 get past being excluded from fasting. Zainab assures him they鈥檙e all just looking out for him. Khalil comments that at least at his new school he鈥檚 treated like everyone else.
Azra bumps into Justin and the subject of the sewage leak comes up. Justin sympathises. Azra mentions Robert鈥檚 emailed him on the subject, to see if he can help. Justin reckons there鈥檚 not much he can do. The liability lies with Borsetshire Water, not Damara as the developers of Beechwood. He suggests it鈥檚 up to the whole community to get together and persuade the water company to improve the infrastructure.
Lynda has a dilemma 鈥� Freddie鈥檚 volunteered as cricket captain and she鈥檇 just secured Tom. Robert suggests she retracts the offer to Tom. Lynda will sleep on it.
Concerned for Khalil, Lynda suggests she and Robert stop fasting. Azra feels it will make no difference. She confides that Khalil had leukaemia when he was younger, and it鈥檚 her need to protect her son that鈥檚 frustrating him. She knows she鈥檚 denying him his independence, but she can鈥檛 let go of her image of the fragile little boy he was.
