Karl is furious with Pippa and her disloyalty. Meanwhile, outside his office, Ruth is saying how sorry she feels for Pippa, but Phil points out that this is the girl who irritated the hell out of her from the beginning.

She says that Liam has to be her first priority and, fighting back the tears, she leaves, saying it’s best to make a clean break from it all.
