On a welcome return to Friday night, Ruairi faces a dilemma, and Alistair takes the initiative.

Alistair points out to Jim that his actions yesterday hurt Jazzer. Jim obfuscates. Alistair tells him he can’t keep battening down the hatches when something affects him. Jim admits he’ll be sad to see Jazzer go, but he is after all just the lodger. Alistair’s exasperated. Finally Jim confesses he didn’t want Jazzer to see that he minded about him leaving. He agrees to talk to Jazzer, at the appropriate moment.
Ruairi’s late for breakfast and apologises to Julianne. He turns on his phone and there’s an avalanche of alerts. He races back to Willow Cottage.
Alice is determined her dad shouldn’t downplay what’s happened to him. It was an angina attack, and they won’t know how serious it is until he’s visited the chest clinic. Brian can’t believe the fuss everyone’s making. He’s miffed that Stella has banned him making work calls. He’s delighted when Ruairi arrives. Alice tells Ruairi how well Stella did with it all, and Ruairi responds that he’s glad at least someone knew what they were doing. Stung, Alice leaves the room. Ruairi wishes he hadn’t gone out last night. His dad could have died. Brian reassures him all’s well. Perhaps between the two of them they can get everyone off his back. Seeing Ruairi has been a tonic for the soul. Ruairi says he won’t leave Brian’s side. Julianne’s keen Ruairi doesn’t renege on his commitments. Alice sees Ruairi as Julianne drives off. She asks if he can stick around for a few days. No, replies Ruairi, he needs to get back to London.
