No 22: Terese is drinking a glass of wine, ignoring Brad, who is asking her how long she is going to give him the silent treatment. Terese asks how Brad didn't know that Lauren was pregnant when she left Ramsay Street. Brad explains that Lauren didn't say anything and that he didn't cheat on Beth as they hadn't got back together until afterwards. Terese angrily asks why Lauren hasn't said anything for the whole time they have been living together on the street and wonders where the daughter is now. Brad replies that Lauren doesn't know where she is, but Terese asks how they know that Lauren isn't lying. Refuting this, Brad suggests telling Josh and Imogen the news, but Terese tells him not to as Josh is only just keeping things together as it is. Terese gets up and tells Brad she needs to talk to Lauren; Brad tries to stop her, pointing out that she is angry and will make things worse, but Terese angrily turns on him, wondering how the situation could get any worse.

No 32: Marching into the kitchen, Terese, followed by Brad, furiously asks Lauren if the whole thing is a joke. Lauren urges Matt to close the door and Brad tries to calm Terese down. Lauren tells Terese she is as shocked as everyone, but Terese angrily yells that Lauren at least knew there was a pregnancy in the first place. Terese shouts that she can't believe that Lauren didn't know the baby was alive, Matt tells her to thank Kathy for that bombshell. Lauren tells Terese that it all happened before Terese met Brad, but Terese snaps back that Brad is her husband and wonders how Lauren would feel if it were Matt in the same position. Lauren admits she would find it difficult. Terese can't believe that it would just be 'difficult' and rounds on Matt asking how he can be so calm about this. Matt replies that nothing will be achieved by yelling at each other. Terese adds that they will not be telling the children: Matt argues that they will be angry if the adults are keeping secrets, but Terese sarcastically retorts that Lauren has been doing so for twenty years and that a few more days won't matter. She adds that this will be non-negotiable and that it is the least Lauren owes them. Terese asks Lauren what she is going to do now, pointing out Lauren doesn't know where it is or what its name is. Lauren snaps back that 'it' is a 'she' and tells Terese she is struggling as much as her. Terese storms off, angry and upset leaving Brad to apologise after her.

No 22:Terese storms in, followed by Brad, who tells her being angry at Lauren won't help. Terese says that she is angry at the whole situation, admitting she can't make sense of the situation. Terese explains she is ok with Beth's child because she knew about them, but the fact there are now three mothers entangled in Brad's life makes her wonder if there are any more children out there that she should know about. brad explains that there are not; Terese says she understands that Lauren isn't responsible for what Kathy did, but points out that what Brad did was deceitful too. Brad heads off to take a shower and go to bed: Terese tells him she wants to sleep by herself and Brad heads off to set himself up on the couch. After he has gone, Terese heads over to the portrait on the wall. Looking sadly at it, she throws it to the floor, and walks over it, smashing the glass in the process.

No 22: The next morning, Imogen wakes up Brad, asking him why he is sleeping on the couch. Brad replies that he fell asleep watching the TV, although Imogen points out that he never does that. She asks what happened to the smashed portrait as she found it on the floor; just then, Terese walks past saying the wind use have caught it. Imogen asks what the fighting is about, as she notices the tension between Brad and Terese. They don't say anything, so Imogen tells them to sort their stuff out as she heads off to get some milk, as Terese has noticed they are out whilst she is making the tea. Once Imogen has left, Brad tells Terese they will have to tell the children, but Terese snaps back that she is not ready. He asks Terese how she slept, and Terese indicates that she didn't, before leaving the house to grab a coffee at work.
