Nicky’s astonished when a slanging match outside the Shop with Nate leaves his mum totally unflustered. Caleb’s full of foreboding to hear Ruby’s been alienating his family further; he heads off to find out what’s happened. Unable to watch another row between his parents in Mill Cottage, Nicky’s quick to stick up for Ruby when Caleb demands to know what she said to upset Nate. Caleb’s left exasperated by his incorrigible wife. Later that night, Caleb can’t help feeling a pang of guilt as Ruby describes to Nicky what she gave up to build a life with his dad. It’s clear Ruby views Caleb’s attempts to connect with the Dingles as an existential threat to their relationship. Nicky convinces Ruby that an apology to Nate might be a good idea, especially if it helps to smooth things over between her and Caleb. Nate accepts Ruby’s apology and the pair start to tentatively bond over their shared hurt at Tracy and Caleb’s betrayals. When Caleb marches in, he’s surprised to find Ruby and Nate peaceably conversing. However Nate makes clear that Caleb himself is a long way from forgiveness. Will Ruby have gone far enough to win her husband back?
When a drunk and glum Tracy plants her lips on Nate, he quickly rejects her.
Amy and Matty’s excitement over selecting the Village Hall as their wedding venue is slightly undercut by Claudette’s strained reaction to the information that Matty is trans. Soon, Claudette’s beliefs cause her to take a misguided stance forbidding Amy and Matty from marrying in the Village Hall as it’s Church property. Although Suzy is quick to propose finding a new venue, it’s clear Matty has been blindsided by Claudette’s prejudice. Later on, in the Hide, Claudette’s hurtful stance on the Village Hall pushes Matty to confess that he just wants to experience his wedding day as himself rather than as other peoples’ trans role model. Amy processes Matty’s desire for a scaled-down wedding and tries to hide a flicker of disappointment.
