There鈥檚 an awkward moment for Alice, and Harrison seeks the advice of a mate.
Alice remarks on how little stuff Rex needs to move in with her. He brandishes an old poultry ledger of his grandfather George Fairbrother, with some entries possibly from his aunt Grace. Alice advises Rex on decorating his boat, ready to rent out to holidaymakers. She鈥檚 grateful that he鈥檚 giving up his beloved boat to be with her. But a sudden request from Fallon to come over to Alice鈥檚 scuppers tonight鈥檚 romantic evening.
Supportive Alice is firmly on Fallon鈥檚 side when they talk about a pivotal moment - Fallon鈥檚 miscarriage, and Harrison鈥檚 erratic reaction. Harrison just wasn鈥檛 the support that her friends were, including Alice. Having got past her own demons, Alice encourages Fallon, who鈥檚 excited about her new job at Lower Loxley, but nervous about breaking it to Jolene and Kenton.
Chris visits Harrison and can鈥檛 believe it鈥檚 over with Fallon. Harrison confesses that he could have returned home to Fallon six months sooner, and she didn鈥檛 even get angry when he told her. Perhaps they shouldn鈥檛 have married, given their different views about having children? Chris comforts Harrison, who feels he ran away when they hit problems, in contrast to Chris who was there for Alice.
Chris visits Alice to return a comfort toy for Martha, and it appears Rex has already got Martha off to sleep. Chris and Alice reflect on Harrison and Fallon. They鈥檝e made things work, though, and will be there for the ex-couple. Chris heads off, with Rex surprising Chris with a few old bits and pieces of Chris鈥檚 found in a wardrobe, from his time with Alice.
