As a bleary-eyed Shona struggles with Harper, Jodie reminds her she promised Lily a cake for the school sale. Jodie refuses to help, claiming she has a dentist’s appointment. After a stressful morning, Shona’s horrified when the smoke alarm goes off and she realises she’s burnt cake. Jodie watches from the garden, enjoying her sister’s torment. Whilst Shona takes a nap on the sofa, Jodie slips in. As Doug and David arrive they’re horrified to find the kitchen full of smoke and Shona asleep.
Later, Feeling useless at home, with David and Jodie insisting she just relax, Shona goes to fetch Harper for her bath. Jodie replaces the water with boiling water from the kettle. David tests the water and yelps in pain. As Shona walks in with Harper David rails at her, pointing out she could have scalded their daughter. When Gemma tells Jodie about her own postnatal depression, Jodie secretly forms a plan.
As David and Shona leave for their romantic lunch, Jodie criticises Shona’s hair and outfit to dent her confidence. Arriving back home, Shona enters the house to hear Harper crying. She tries the annexe door but finds it locked. David enters to find Shona beside herself with worry. Upset, Shona heads out for a walk and Asha finds her in Victoria Garden with Harper. When Asha smells wine on Shona’s breath she’s concerned.
Things take a turn when Shona hears Harper crying, but as she goes to fetch her, David enters from the garden carrying a happy smiley Harper. Shona gets upset, convinced she must be hearing things. David accompanies Shona to the doctor’s. While Shona naps, Jodie remarks to David that it must be difficult being a carer and a single parent. David asserts that it’s only a blip.
