All is not going to plan for George, and Kirsty faces an emotional moment,
George is disappointed his online video for the Borchester Show is hardly getting any views. Amber reminds him of her suggestions to maximise impact. George grudgingly accepts Amber鈥檚 offer to help, after a pep-talk on feminism. Later, Amber emphasises recognising their separate strengths and playing to them when working as a team, both for the video and when the baby鈥檚 born. When Lilian comes over Amber remarks on Brian鈥檚 kindness investing in George鈥檚 drone. Lilian doesn鈥檛 comment, but she鈥檚 happy to have George back at the Bull, so long as he keeps in line.
Erik and Kirsty talk about Carol, and Anna鈥檚 difficulties over care issues. Erik wishes he could stay longer, but Kirsty鈥檚 grateful for the time they鈥檝e had. Erik makes a surprise, spontaneous marriage proposal. Assuming he鈥檚 joking Kirsty accepts a twig ring, but says no: she never wants to go there again. So long as Erik鈥檚 there for the baby, that鈥檚 the main thing. Jakob later queries Kirsty rejecting Erik鈥檚 proposal, but she assures Jakob she wasn鈥檛 being harsh. It鈥檚 just there鈥檚 no need for marriage 鈥� and she loves the fact that Erik is a carefree spirit, hoping the baby will inherit some of that. Erik then offers to buy farewell drinks, but they turn him down. After Jakob and Erik head to the airport, Lilian tells Kirsty she should make an honest man of Erik - but Kirsty鈥檚 fine with how things are.
Kirsty bumps into Amber and they share a moment when Amber鈥檚 baby kicks for the first time 鈥� she鈥檒l go and tell George.
