Tom has serious concerns, and Rochelle finds herself at a crossroads.
Rex calls on Rochelle. He鈥檚 sorry, but he can鈥檛 stop thinking about her and suspects she feels the same about him. Rochelle shuts him down. They can鈥檛 be together. Rex leaves and Rochelle calls her mum. She admits to Joy that she鈥檚 heartbroken. She still really likes Rex.
Joy spots a small burn on Lilian鈥檚 hand. Lilian admits she鈥檚 clumsy at the moment. Joy observes that grief is distracting and exhausting. Lilian sighs she鈥檚 got so much to organise but she鈥檇 rather be dealing with one of Peggy鈥檚 weekly lists. She shows Joy one she鈥檚 kept. Joy thinks the lists are a beautiful memory. Lilian thanks her for being a good friend and shoulder to cry on.
Tom confronts Helen over her comments to Natasha. Helen maintains she was simply reminding Natasha of the truth 鈥� that Tom had received handouts from Peggy more than once over the years. When Tom points out that Natasha wasn鈥檛 even around at that time, Helen calms down. Helen admits that rightly or wrongly, she was hoping for more from her gran鈥檚 will. Later Lilian gives them the news that Peggy鈥檚 wish was for everyone to go on a family holiday together. Lilian鈥檚 quite excited. She hopes the small legacies Peggy left doesn鈥檛 cause issues for the family. The last thing she and Tony want is in-fighting and arguments. Tom and Helen agree. But Tom thinks this still doesn鈥檛 make sense. He wants to be sure Peggy wasn鈥檛 cheated of her money. Something doesn鈥檛 add up; where has all the money gone?
