Episode 50 of 55

Penny discovers Frieda's secret past, while Ric finally agrees to chemotherapy. And Lady Byrne ruins Joseph's chances of playing a part in his son's future.

Frieda challenges Penny over a tricky diagnosis, and when the patient goes into crisis she saves his life. Penny challenges Frieda on her surgical know-how, and Frieda is forced to admit she trained as a doctor. Penny is sworn to secrecy.

Ric has survived surgery, but faces a long struggle with chemotherapy. Feeling isolated, he refuses treatment, until Annalese and a reluctant Michael help him realise he has the long-term support to battle his cancer.

Joseph is pleased that Faye has allowed him a place in their child's future. But when scans reveal their son is perfectly healthy, Lady Byrne muscles in, and Faye rejects all help from Joseph - she doesn't want her child to grow up a Byrne.
