Kate faces an uphill battle and Jakob makes the most of his present situation
Kate’s facing an uphill battle, trying to teach Jakob yoga in a virtual private lesson. He needs to switch off his analytical brain – though she is appreciating the opportunity to admire his body from afar. She’s missing him; one of the drawbacks of isolating with Peggy.
Kate’s also miffed that her manager Lucy beat her to it in setting up her own online yoga tuition sessions. She needs to find her own USP.
Jakob’s seizing the chance while he’s separated from Kate to re-order his wardrobe and enjoy the tidiness of his life. He feels he has plenty to do and it’s good for them to take a break from each other. Though he admits… he does miss Kate.
Meanwhile Kate’s isolation problems mount as she struggles with poor wifi, an unwanted gift from Hilda the cat and a wayward gran. She’s also had a text from her GP, arranging a phone call for tomorrow. Her symptoms were only moodiness; though she is sleeping badly and sometimes feels like she’s got a terrible hangover. She hopes she’s ok.
