David gives Ruth a demonstration of Ben's assault course. She hopes he'll let the kids get a look-in this afternoon. While Ruth gets back to finish the food, Pip tells David she wants to cook lunch on Mother's Day. She reckons she could cook something really nice using the five-mile principle.

As children arrive for Ben's party, Pip goes to her room - she never thought she'd be so keen to do revision. The children enjoy the assault course just as much as David.

Lilian wishes Matt would eat; all the coffee he's drinking is putting him on edge. Matt wishes he knew what Chalky's text meant but Lilian can't face the prospect of Matt going to prison and wishes he'd take Russell's advice.

After leaving a desperate message on their answering machine, Brenda's determined to speak to Matt and turns up at the door. Realising she won't give up, Matt decides to get it over with. Brenda wants to know why he blew Tom out but is shocked to learn that he won't be needing her help - probably for a very long time. Matt shuts the door on her. He's sorry but there's nothing he can do.
