Alice has a secret and Fallon makes amends.

Fallon’s working with impatient Jazzer to fashion the best look for his Naughty Milkman audition photos. They chat about Alice, agreeing it’s no surprise she’s a bit shaken after her ordeal. Fallon feels guilty for cancelling their plans to meet, but Jazzer assures her she’s not to blame. They settle on a New Romantic look, but Jazzer’s not at all keen on the make-up. By the time Fallon’s finally happy with the look and snapping away, she discovers they’re too late. Jolene and Lilian have already chosen Jakob as the Naughty Milkman. Fallon points out Jakob was put up to it by Kate, so may yet pull out. But Jazzer’s not bothered. He’s scored a result anyway by sending out the pictures and getting a very positive response from Jade in Warren Coppice…

Gavin calls on Alice. She apologises and thanks him profusely; she’s glad he was there the other night. But he’s a reluctant hero, and it’s an awkward encounter. Finally he addresses the elephant in the room; she’d smelled of alcohol when he found her. Panicked Alice begs Gavin not to tell Chris. He assures her he won’t. They share some thoughts on how they find working for their respective fathers. Gavin reassures Alice she’ll soon be back to normal. Suddenly Alice nearly falls apart and Gavin’s concerned. She insists she’s ok even though she would love a drink but that might hurt the baby.
