Before Leo can break the news to Kiri, Byron and Nicolette arrive at the vineyard, and it’s an extremely awkward and tense meeting between the two exes, especially when both parties realise the other has also made an offer to buy into the vineyard. Though Byron and Nicolette pitch their hearts out, determined to be chosen over Kiri, Leo admits neither of them can offer as much as Vic originally was planning, so in a perfect world, he’d partner with all three. Trying to successfully navigate the potential issue of Kiri and Nicolette working together, Leo offers a trial period so the foursome can see how they gel. Though everyone agrees, when Kiri later runs into Nicolette there’s still a lot of tension between the two women and it’s painfully clear that this trial isn’t going to be smooth sailing…

Aaron and Logan’s friendship continues to deepen, especially when Logan makes a positive first impression with Isla and the two quickly bond. Continuing to take steps forward in his grief, Aaron donates David’s clothes to the Foundation, but when Andrew makes an innocent comment on the obvious connection between Aaron and Logan, a guilty Aaron freaks out, shutting Andrew down and demanding the clothes back. But a guilty Toadie informs him that the clothes have all been bought and gently reminds Aaron that there’s no correct timeline on how he should feel after a partner passes away, and it’s not a betrayal of David if he finds himself enjoying the company of others. Realising he was just freaking out, Aaron accepts Toadie’s counsel and affirms he does like having Logan in his life – completely unaware that Logan is the one who has purchased all of David’s clothes.

The Share House suffers another blow when the hot water system goes kaput and Vera refuses to pay unless the housemates can make it worth her while. A helpless Haz quickly finds himself giving Vera a manicure in an attempt to placate her, but a firm Mackenzie puts Vera in her place and gets her to cough up for a new system. When the hot water service is restored, Mackenzie offers Vera a compromise, allowing her restricted access to the pool. She hopes that if they indulge Vera a little, she’ll respect their boundaries from now on.
