The Kennedys are alarmed over Finn’s escape from the hospital, with Karl urging Susan and the girls to go into lockdown. Before long, Karl finds Finn in the hospital car park and is troubled to see how seemingly genuine his distress is over the revelations Karl made about his past.
Later, Finn gets a new specialist organised by Paul - Dr. Beverley, Paul’s former stepmother. She confirms what Karl told him and adds yet another shock: Finn was in a coma because Susan pushed him off a cliff.
Finn seems to be genuinely shaken again, then later requests to speak to Susan. He tells her that he has learned what happened and he forgives her. Susan is caught off guard by Finn’s declaration, unsure of what to make of it.
Meanwhile, Leo continues wrestling with his heartbreak over Terese and Paul’s betrayal – increasingly taking comfort in Piper’s supportive friendship. At the same time, Terese and Paul are still trying to settle Mrs Punt’s lawsuit and realise the only way to appease her is to convince Leo to publicly apologise for his actions that injured her.
Humiliated by the prospect, Leo finds solace in a movie marathon night with Piper. Leo vents his frustration about Paul and Terese, and Piper shares her sense of feeling lost and at a loose end in life. Their emotional intimacy builds to a sizzling frisson that ends with Piper and Leo falling passionately into each other’s arms.
Elsewhere, Gary and Sheila reluctantly head to the ballet. Both are surprisingly engaged by the show and on the heels of their nice time together, they begin to open up to each other about their recent conflict. They enjoy a frank discussion where they agree they both made mistakes during Gary’s upbringing, but Gary is adamant he’s responsible for his own behaviour now.
