While Bianca said that she would keep the secret to herself, she advised her to come clean to Teddy as the truth will always come out in the end.

At the café, Sharon tried to tell Teddy the truth and apologised, but she couldn’t go through with it as Nigel was nearby and she was scared he would tell Phil.
She spoke about the situation to Zack in Harry’s Barn, admitting that she was more concerned about protecting Phil – but they heard footsteps, and realised that someone might have overheard.
Teddy invited Sharon round that evening, and she was concerned that he might have discovered the truth, but it was actually for a family dinner, with Barney home from hospital.

Sharon got worried when Teddy admitted he had brought her here under false pretences, but his secret was only that Harry had made the dinner instead of him.
Relieved that she hadn’t been found out, Sharon called Zack and explained that Teddy remained oblivious.
But Barney then cornered Zack in the café and revealed that he had overheard their chat and knew that Sharon had slept with Grant.
Will Barney tell Teddy the truth?
