Mortified that her feelings have been discovered, Dee is hurt by Shane and Dipi's suggestion that she should take a step back from Toadie. The Rebecchis express worry about the confusion her presence could cause Toadie and the kids, giving Dee a lot to think about. But when Dee starts avoiding Toadie entirely, Shane and Dipi come clean to Toadie about their suggestion, but suggest he ask Dee for the reason why.
Dee admits to Toadie she's falling for him. The revelation forces him to confront his own feelings and, seeking counsel from Mark, Toadie admits there are moments when his fondness for Dee feels more like love than friendship, but his heart still belongs to Sonya. Sharing this truth with Dee, Toadie gently explains that although he still loves her, he isn't ready for another relationship. But he makes it clear he still wants Dee in his life.
Dee appreciates Toadie's honesty and asks how he might feel about her setting up in Erinsborough for a while. The idea of having Dee around the corner sounds wonderful to Toadie, but Shane and Dipi remain privately concerned. Can they just go back to being friends?
