Synopsis
Cleo regrets playing along with Abe's suggestion of an open relationship. Beau tells Kitty to live her life, then cuts all contact with everyone. Dillon starts his driving lessons with Tom in an unexpected way, when Tom has him wash the car.Plot
Cleo wants to sort things out with Abe, but Abe claims he wants to part of a normal, fun, carefree couple, not have a partner who pushes him away every time her manipulative family interferes. When John Paul asks how they're getting on in their new place, Abe implies things are great, and announces they're having a flat-warming party. Ro worries as the police want to speak to him about Beau. Kitty stresses that he can't tell them Declan was her father. As they plan for the party, Cleo asks Abe if they're just going to pretend everything's fine, but Abe reminds her she agreed to be more fun. Zoe asks Ro if he's aware of any connection between Beau and Mr. Hawthorne, which he denies. Zoe comes clean to Kitty that she has no evidence of her involvement, but can recognise a guilty conscience.
Kitty tells Beau she's going to confess, as she's crumbling under the pressure. Beau tells her to stay strong for him, as his solicitor has suggested he'll be out soon with the self-defence claim. Beau implores Kitty to go and live her life, free of her father's terror. At the flat-warming party, Theresa suggests they play "Never Have I Ever". When John Paul and Cleo don't raise their glasses for any statement, John Paul playfully refers to them as the "boring ones". Trying to fit the "fun, carefree" label Abe wants her to be, Cleo suggests she'd be up for an open relationship, and Abe exchanges a look with Theresa. Tony and Diane visit Beau in prison, and he informs them his solicitor has actually told him he'll likely be in prison for a long time. Beau thanks them for letting him be part of their family. Tony says he'll be back to talk strategy, but when they leave, Beau asks a guard if he can speak to someone about his visitors. Abe teases Cleo about her views on monogamy, and says he's game for an open relationship if she is. Cleo agrees, but appears unsure.
In the park, Dilly tells Prince she's worried about Zoe going through her pregnancy alone. Prince picks up a parenting book from the jumble sale, and hides it from Dilly. Abe tells Cleo, for their open relationship to work, they should keep their activities secret from each other. Kitty thinks it's better if they're honest, then gets a phone call from Tony telling her Beau has cut all contact with everyone, and will likely serve a life sentence. Kitty decides to go, and Cleo follows her, leaving Abe and Theresa alone. Dilly finds the parenting book and asks Prince why he has it. Kitty and Cleo end up at The Loft, where Cleo admits she's unsure about sharing Abe. Kitty tells her to go and be honest with him, then overhears DI Banks telling Zoe that the person who keeps reporting Kitty Draper missing is Abe Fielding. Cleo arrives home, and hears Abe and Theresa in her bedroom. Distraught, and struggling to process, Cleo cries and throws up in the sink.Cast
