Recap
• Lou asks Lauren if she's keeping something from him
• Lauren is very upset about Mason's plans to move to Darwin
• Kate tells Georgia that she's the only girl for Kyle
• Georgia and Kyle finally start to get along
• Georgia calls Kyle, telling him that there's something wrong with the baby

Erinsborough Hospital - Exterior: Kyle pulls up outside the hospital and helps Georgia out of the car. Karl meets them and places Georgia in a wheelchair, telling a nurse to take her straight up for an ultrasound. He then tells Karl that he'll come and find him as soon as there's any news.

Erinsborough Hospital - Exterior: Kyle waits outside, unsure what to do with himself. Karl eventually comes out to see him, and simply shakes his head.

Erinsborough Hospital - Exterior: Kyle is worried that Georgia is leaving the hospital so quickly, but she says that there's nothing more that they can do for her, though she's not sure that she wants to go home. Kyle offers to take her anywhere she wants to go, and she says that maybe they could just walk around for a while. Neither of them can believe what's happened - the baby's gone. Kyle puts his arm around her, and they walk away from the hospital.

Charlie's: Terese is sitting at a table, doing some work, when Brad tracks her down and suggests that, as the last few weeks have been so stressful, they should make some time for themselves today. She shows him a flyer that she picked up earlier, suggesting that they could go there that afternoon, and Brad agrees, so they arrange to meet later.

No 30: Toadie and Callum are playing with Nell, when Kyle and Georgia walk in. She isn't quite ready for the happy family scene that awaits her, and Kyle tries to tell them, but then a distressed Georgia walks off. Toadie looks over and asks Kyle what's happened.

Harold's Store: In the kitchen, Lauren tells Matt that Mason called earlier - he seems to be having a great time, and she admits that she was hoping that he might miss them all a little bit more. Matt says that he's happy for Mason, and Lauren agrees that she is too - mostly. Matt then leaves to go back to work, but reminds Lauren about their mystery date later that day. Out in the store, Sonya is struggling to choose a card for Georgia, and Lou calls Lauren over to help. Lauren is then very upset to learn about Georgia's miscarriage.

No 26: A tearful Sheila hugs Kyle, having just heard the news. She tells him that this time if just wasn't meant to be, but he'll make a wonderful father one day. Chris also offers his condolences, and tells Kyle to just say the word if there's anything he needs. Kyle thanks him, but says that nobody can really do anything right now - he and Georgia will just have to find a way through this, together.

No 30: Toadie and Sonya are sitting quietly, when Georgia appears from her bedroom. Sonya hugs her, and Toadie explains that Callum's taken Nell out for a walk. Georgia insists that they don't have to hide their baby from her, and Sonya asks her if she got any sleep. She says that she only got about 10 minutes of sleep and when she woke up, it didn't hit her straight away, and then she started to wonder why this happened, and whether she could have done anything to prevent it. Sonya reassures her that it's just nature's way, and that she couldn't have changed it - Georgia admits that she's given that speech to so many women at work, but it's still so hard to understand when it happens to you.

Lassiter's Lake: Lauren is sitting by the lake, thinking about things, when Brad comes along and jokingly accuses her of skiving. He asks if she's been thinking about 'her baby' and it takes Lauren a moment to realise that he's referring to Mason. Lauren says that she feels stupid, as he's only been gone for a couple of days, but Brad agrees that things seemed a bit weird when Piper first went to Canada, but the family adapted and they'll adapt again when she comes back in a few months. Brad realises that his rambling isn't helping, and apologises for the way he behaved towards the Turners over Josh's accident, but says that he values their friendship and is glad that things are getting back to normal. Lauren turns to him, about to say something, then thinks better of it and says that she should get back to work.

No 30: Georgia is sitting on the sofa with a blanket over her, when Lauren walks in, carrying a trifle. She says that this is going to seem a little bit crazy - and goes on to explain that she once lost a baby herself. She says that during the pregnancy, she'd had a craving for trifle, so she went on eating it so that she could briefly forget about the tragedy she'd experienced. Georgia thinks that anything that helps to ease the pain, however briefly, is a good idea, and she agrees to have some of the trifle with Lauren. As she serves it up, Lauren explains that the pain does start to fade eventually, though it never goes away completely. She suggests that Georgia should let Kyle in, as she'll need his support, and explains that she was alone when she lost her child, as it was before she met Matt and it's a very hard thing to go through on your own.

No 32: Lauren walks into the kitchen and immediately calls her mum for a chat. Kathy asks if there's something that the kids need, but Lauren says that it's actually something more serious - she's decided to tell Matt and Brad about the baby. Kathy clearly doesn't think this is a good idea, but Lauren tells her that she can't keep putting it off, and that she doesn't want to argue about it. She tells Kathy that she'll call her again later.

Erinsborough Community Centre: Matt is waiting outside, just as Lauren drives up. She apologises for being late and asks about the surprise date - Matt tells her that it's a salsa lesson. Lauren isn't too keen, preferring to go to Charlie's for a drink, but Matt talks her into it and takes her inside. She looks around, surprised to see Brad and Terese in the crowd - they go over to the Turners and Brad says that it's nice to see Lauren out and about, as she didn't seem herself earlier. She says that it was just an off moment, and then the instructor, Reno, calls everyone to begin. Brad jokes that they should film this and put it online to freak out the kids, but Terese reminds him that 'no talking about children' is the first rule of date night. Lauren quietly says that seems like a good idea.

No 30: Kyle turns up with some comfort food from Sheila, who sends her condolences. Kyle tells Georgia that they can get through this together, but Georgia reminds him that they aren't a couple now, and they were only spending so much time together because of the baby. She tells him that he doesn't need to feel obligated to her now, and that he should just go back to his old life, without her. Kyle asks if that means that she doesn't want to see him at all, and she says that it might be easier if they just dealt with this separately, with their own families. She tells him to take care, and he leaves.

Erinsborough Community Centre: Lauren clearly isn't enjoying the dancing - Matt asks her if he's that bad, or is she thinking about Mason? Lauren doesn't reply, and Matt tells her that soon, once the kids have all moved out, they can do more of this and relive their honeymoon period. Brad and Terese try to encourage them to let go a little more, and Matt starts to get competitive, hurling Lauren around the floor Reno tells them all to swap partners, and Brad ends up dancing with Lauren. He says that she still seems a little out of sorts, but Lauren suddenly rushes out of the room, saying that she needs some air. Lauren runs over to her car and gets in, struggling to compose herself.

Dial-a-Kyle: Kyle drives back to the yard and spots the rocking horse he'd been restoring for the baby. He sits and looks at it, and then breaks down in tears.
