Jolene tells Jazzer that Fallon enjoyed her night out on Sunday, so he should encourage her to get out more often. Fallon's trying to put together a flatpack computer desk for Sid. Jazzer gets it done in no time and Fallon thanks him with a kiss. Jazzer invites her to go to a Laser Tag centre next week. 

Fallon sings Jazzer's praises to Jolene, who questions whether Jazzer is still just a mate. When Fallon protests, Jolene promises not to say another word. But Fallon feels she at least owes him a drink, and offers to buy him one later.

Annette's talking to a counsellor who needs to know that Annette is absolutely sure she wants an abortion. Annette makes it clear that she is, and so she's offered the 'abortion pill' but is dismayed to learn that she'll need to register with a GP before they can give it to her.

Helen tells Annette that she'd be around to support her and could help her look after the baby, if she changed her mind. Annette insists she doesn't want to hear this but Helen persists until she upsets Annette. Helen apologises. Annette insists it's not her fault, but heads off to her room.

Episode written by Simon Frith.
