Lou tells her about the special offer and she asks for a glass of “chardy” to go with it.

Lil and Luka arrive home and David tells Luka how sorry he is, explaining that he felt the same when he lost his sister. Luka tells him that it’s not the same, as he knew his sister, and he goes to his room. Lil tells David how awful it was, and how she had to lie to Luka about Ivan again. She wonders if it would all be easier if she was just honest, but David tells her that no boy needs to know that his father was really a no-good liar.

Luka is out on the balcony at number 24, when Serena comes out and tells him he shouldn’t have matches, as people might get the wrong idea. She walks off as he shouts at her, saying that she’s just jealous, as his parents shared something special. She ignores him and continues walking.

Harold takes Lou to one side and tells him to give the woman a meal voucher, it’ll shut her up and she might bring back a friend next time. She is very grateful for this and leaves.

Stingray is at the pub, writing Sindi Rebecchi loves Toadie Watts on a napkin, when Serena comes in and asks for his advice.

She also admits that Luka wants her to be a loving mother, but the bond just isn’t there yet. She says that David and Serena are trying too, but it’s just such a big change. Susan says that they need to get some cake and take their minds off it.

Harold suspects that she’s done it herself, but Lou reminds him that the customer is always king. She tells him she wants a refund for the muffin and the milkshake and Harold goes to get it. Susan and Lil are laughing and the woman asks them what they’re looking at. Susan denies looking at anything, and she tells them to keep it that way.

At number 28 that evening, Sindi is trying on some of Susan’s clothes. Susan reminds her that she’s in her twenties, so she wouldn’t know anything about fashion for the over-45’s. Sindi says that after all of the fake articles Carmella made her write, this is her first genuine one and she feels like she’s been broken. Stingray gets home and Susan asks if he’s been studying, to which he starts getting defensive. There’s a knock at the door and Susan answers it to find the woman from earlier in the Coffee Shop standing there. Stingray recognises the voice as his mother’s and runs to greet her, while Susan watches them, stunned.
