There’s mortifying news for Tracy while Alice is in party mode.

Alice gets uncomfortable Amy on board with arrangements for Martha’s first birthday party. As they chat Amy’s horrified when Fallon arrives. Tension simmers between them as oblivious Alice presses on. But when Amy leaves abruptly, Alice demands to know from Fallon what’s going on. With an effort Fallon evades Alice’s question, but Alice can’t understand why Fallon’s taking out her tetchiness on Amy, their good friend. She couldn’t do any of this without the two of them, and begs Fallon to make things right with Amy. Fallon reluctantly agrees.

Jazzer wants to know what’s bothering grumpy Alistair, who eventually gives up that he’s miffed not only to miss the tradition of being persuaded to attend cricket training, but also that Tracy thinks he’s eligible for the veterans team. Does he really look sixty-five? He’s not even sixty yet! Jazzer reckons it’s his dress sense letting him down, but Alistair counters it’s lack of sleep. The noise coming from Jazzer’s room when Tracy stays over is keeping him awake. Jazzer conveys this delicate information to Tracy, and suggests they spend more time at hers. No, says Tracy, the walls are paper thin at No.6.  Jazzer has the idea of creating a secret love nest in one of the rooms at Grey Gables. As Tracy protests it’s more than her job’s worth, Jazzer can tell she’s a little excited too. It’s mad, but they have to do it – as soon as possible.
