Her daughter's wedding day should have been the most important thing to Hazel Delany, but it wasn't. She decides to leave the wedding and her husband Paul to satisfy her own needs. Meanwhile, Alona, a sex therapist, realises that she needs to take some of her own advice since she and her partner Paul aren't as close as they once were.

Paul finds himself in hot water with one of his clients, Tracy. Tracey is 'in love' with Paul, but when he doesn't return the feelings she accuses him of sexual misconduct. Georgia also has her suspicions about Clive when she suspects that he is pimping out dancers.

Paul was hoping for support from Alona in dealing with Tracy, but finds that she has doubts when he protests his innocence. In an attempt to get closer with their 'homework', Hazel and Peter try booking into a hotel - but it doesn't go to plan.

Still suspicious of her partner Paul, Alona and he make a big decision. Phillipa returns to see Simon, but it turns nasty when she tells Simon that she will abort their unborn child. And while Peter's back is turned dealing with his son, Hazel goes looking elsewhere and finds Steve.

More determined then ever, Tracy shows Alona a necklace which she says Paul gave to her as a present. After finding out that Peter's nightclub is anything but that, Hazel and he argue. But what will Peter think when he finds out what she has done? It's a dark day for Simon when he receives news which he doesn't want to hear.

Alona decides that she must consider her future. Simon hasn't recovered from the devasting news and turns to drink for comfort - arguing with his parents who try to stop him.
