Helen has a change of heart and Tom struggles to understand the world around him.

The thought gremlins are creeping in for Natasha. Her mum’s reported her dad’s having a big clear out at home, and she feels sorry for her while being grateful that she herself isn’t there. She goes over events in her childhood around her dad’s bipolar condition. She’s surprised by Tom’s message that he’ll be home at six and cheered at his suggestion of a call to her parents. It’s quite a turnaround; Helen must have spoken to him.

Tom’s confused by some of Natasha’s business decisions. He wants to cheer her up but wonders if he’ll ever understand her. He chuckles at Joy’s comparison of Tony to Yul Brynner. Pat wants him to keep his hat on in public. Tom feels like everyone’s losing their minds except him. Later he begins to see Natasha’s point of view. It must be hard for her being so far from her parents. He decides to make an evening of it with Helen’s gifts of cheese and wine.

Helen’s loved meeting Lee across a river bank. It made her feel almost normal. She’s still battling with obtaining milk bottles though, and Tom’s hounding her about her radio interview. She’s enjoyed a chat with Natasha. It makes her realise how she’s usually reticent about letting people in –and that she needs to care less what people think about her past. She resolves to do the interview with Susan.
