Amy won't concede. Meanwhile Josh gets teased.

Amy's still upset, and Alan's feeling helpless. Awkward Usha leaves the two of them to watch a film together. Amy tells Alan he's the only person she can trust.
David's got paperwork to do, but finds Josh on the computer talking to Phoebe. He's telling her about Ifty and she agrees to join in the cricket training when she's back. Later, while Josh helps David collect wood for the beacon, David teases Josh about his plan to impress Phoebe with his cricketing prowess. Ruth's amazed at how much wood they collect. 
Usha turns up unexpectedly to see Ruth. She bemoans how she's spending all her time treading on eggshells. Amy doesn't want to be in the same room as her. Ruth thinks Amy just needs time. Usha explains it's not just Amy - Alan's barely speaking to her either. He must see how Amy's treating Usha. She doesn't want to be angry with him but she wonders if it's his way of punishing her. 
Ruth wants Usha to stop blaming herself. She needs to tell Alan how she's feeling and make him see that she can't carry on like this.
