Emotions run high for Alice, and Susan puts her foot in it.

Henry and Jack have set a treasure hunt for Lee to help cheer him up, because they know he’s missing his daughters. Helen and Lee work through the clues but with Henry and Jack away on their bikes, Helen suggests skipping ahead to the final clue. Susan helps them solve it and Lee unwraps his gift, a guidebook to San Francisco. They don’t have dates for their visit yet but can now get planning. Susan says she thought the parcel would have held an engagement ring. She reminds Helen about the recognition for the changed nature of her job that she’d mentioned yesterday. Susan was thinking a pay rise, whereas Helen thought it would be a blog post on her and Clarrie’s efforts. They agree to fix a meeting to discuss. Helen and Lee laugh at Susan’s engagement ring suggestion. Lee thinks the guidebook is perfect.
Brian finally speaks to Alice. He knows she’s not been answering Kate and Adam’s calls. Alice insists she’s busy but Brian is keen to talk after the revelation of Jennifer’s will on Sunday. Alice can’t stop thinking about why Jennifer only left money to Martha. Brian thinks it’s a lovely gesture. Alice sees it as insurance against her being an absent mother. Brian assures Alice that Jennifer was full of admiration for what she’s achieved, but nothing he says makes things better for Alice. Even though Jennifer saw her reach sobriety, Alice believes that her mother didn’t trust her. Brian comforts Alice as she cries.
