Dan moves back into Dale Head but is a little sad to be moving out. Harriet is shocked when Dan instinctively goes to kiss her. Realising Dan likes her, Harriet’s awkward and leaves as Dan is left kicking himself.

Nate and Naomi’s flirtatious banter continues as he drops her off for her first day at work and Naomi settles well into her new job. However, Nicola’s spooked when she recognises Naomi’s voice and trainers from the day of her attack….

Sandra plants another seed of doubt in Liv’s mind as she continues to push Vinny and Gabby ever closer. Sandra’s irked when Liv shows no signs of jealousy in the face of their banter.

On the retreat, Charity and Mack’s foray into mediation is disastrous as they ditch the session, laughing as they do. As they start to kiss, Charity worries that they haven’t been intimate since they lost the baby. Pouncing on the opportunity, Mack shares that he wants to try for another baby. When Charity storms off, Mack knows he’s mucked it up. Mackenzie and Charity are left at a stalemate when she calls him out for being insensitive about trying for another baby. Charity’s adamant a baby is off the table but Mack refuses to give up on the idea.

Unable to settle their differences, Mackenzie is hurt when wretched Charity insists that if he wants to have a baby, it won’t be with her; she directs him to go and scatter his seed elsewhere. Later, after opening up to Moira, Charity is intent on fixing things with Mack unaware he’s in bed with a mysterious woman.
