Lilian mourns what might have been.
Jim hopes to move into Greenacres before Easter, and shows Eddie where he wants to display his books. Eddie reckons he could put him some shelves up in half a day but Jim's looking for something stylish and would prefer to contact a professional carpenter. Eddie reluctantly accepts the job is lost but swiftly suggests he could re-lay some slabs. These aren't a priority for Jim but he assures Eddie he'll come to Eddie for a quote in the future.
Annette's in an emotional state, and thinks she's let Susan down but Helen assures her that Susan's fine. Annette just wishes she could stop making a mess out of everything, and bursts into tears. Helen comforts her.
Lilian tells Jennifer about her disagreement with Matt. Jennifer's surprised that Matt doesn't want to get in touch with his half brother- she would be very curious if it was her! Helen understands how Matt must be feeling but Lilian doesn't think that Matt has made the right decision. She knows that she will never be able to change his mind though.
