Lilian gets an uncomfortable update.

Mike and Vicky are having a great honeymoon. Brenda's still feeling blue, but Tom reassures her that it's not just newlyweds who can have a good time. She can't stand the thought of Phoebe having a 'Grandma Vicky', but Tom tells her to put on a brave face, for her dad and for herself.
Adam's pushing the cricket team hard, but he insists it's for the greater good. David and Tom feel that Adam's taking it too far; nets used to be a laugh.

Jennifer, Lilian and Jolene discuss the future of Fallon's band, Little White Lies, who have lost their lead guitarist. It's only when Jennifer leaves that Lilian asks after Matt.
Jolene admits that Matt could do with a shave, but otherwise doesn't seem to be doing too badly. Lilian's still feeling guilty for leaving him, though. She's worried he's trying to sort out Chalkman all on his own.

Over lunch, even Jennifer's exasperated that Adam's taking on more work as cricket team captain. She tells him all about Jolene's visit to the Dower House; it seems as though Matt's trying to gather a fair bit of money. It all sounds a bit dodgy to the pair of them.
