Paul is rhapsodising about the new product display units and how easy it will be to sell. Denise reluctantly agrees it looks smart and thanks Alastair again for agreeing to the puppy parties. When Denise leaves Paul begs Alastair to come to her dance fit class as she is worried that no one will turn up. He goes on to say how much it would mean to her. Later, during a water break at the dance fit class Alastair and Denise have an awkward yet flirty conversation about each other’s appearance. Paul receives a message from his dad saying he’ll also be coming and apologising for being late. Denise is shocked and surprised, with things becoming decidedly awkward for her. Later when Alastair is saying goodbye he tells her how pleased he is that the class was a success but he won’t be returning next week.

Natasha suggests to Tom again that Helen is in a different place regarding the 10 acres and perhaps they could create something positive by renting the land from Miles. Then they could put a share of any profits into trust for Henry. Tom is unsure but Natasha tells him it could be very healing. Later on Tom concedes that Rob died thinking he had the last laugh and this way they could get one over on him. He says Miles would have to agree but Natasha argues that he is duty bound to manage the land in Jack’s best interest and who better to rent to than his family. Natasha thinks Helen will love the idea.
