Kirsty attempts to keep a cool head, and Jazzer is brought back to earth with a bump.

Tracy and Jazzer enjoy a honeymooner’s breakfast at Ambridge View. When Neil asks if they’re married now, Tracy says they tried when they were in Scotland, but needed to give more notice. They had a relaxing holiday though and loved driving Jim’s Riley. Talk turns to Berrow and with Jazzer’s cast removed, Jazzer will start back there next week. Neil’s relieved when Jazzer’s supportive over George’s sacking. But Susan tells Tracy that Emma’s still fuming about it. Susan thinks George is just misunderstood. Tracy’s confused to find her house is cleaner than went she went away, but when she asks, discovers it wasn’t down to Susan. Susan’s relieved that Bert’s going back to Tracy’s. Kirsty helps Helen make decorations for Seren and Nova’s birthday party on Friday. When Miles messages Helen asking to meet, Kirsty reminds Helen that Rob’s not her problem. Helen thinks that when she told Lee that Rob was dying, he was shocked, but also seemed relieved. Helen admits that when she’d heard Rob only had months to live, just for that moment, she felt sorry for him. She comforted him when he cried but being that close to him made her feel sick. She wonders if she’s regressed, but Kirsty says Helen showed her humanity and strength. When Kirsty offers to postpone her Prague trip with Erik to support Helen, Helen’s fine, saying she can’t wait to hear the details of Kirsty’s holiday on her return.
