It's the morning after the night before. Meanwhile Hayley uncovers the truth.

Hayley learns the cause of Phoebe's strange behaviour. Kate was having an affair and lied to Phoebe so that she could be with her other man. When Phoebe was in the cab, she was running away. Roy calls Kate to confront her, but softens when he realises Kate is upset. He assures her that Phoebe will come round. 
Adam didn't come home last night, and isn't answering his phone. Ian's even more worried when he learns Adam's not gone to work.
Adam wakes up in a hotel room with Pawel. Though Pawel still seems keen, Adam insists last night was a one-off, and is anxious to get to work. He wants to make a discreet entrance but Brian sees them. Adam tries to explain that he is merely playing the Good Samaritan by taking an unwell Pawel to the doctors. 
Phoning Ian from work, Adam pleads drunken stupidity and explains he checked into a hotel alone to recover from his sorry state. Back at home, they quickly reconcile. Ian understands Adam's reluctance to be involved with the dairy. He suggests that if Adam is truly unhappy, they can leave Ambridge together. He just doesn't want Adam to do anything like that without him again.
