Chloe and Elly are on a high after their amazing date when they encounter Mark at the Tanaka house. He's surprisingly cool with their presence and even invites them to stay for a BBQ he has planned with Aaron, David and Kyle. Aaron worries Mark isn't as okay as he says he is, but David warns him to stop meddling.

Chloe is challenged when Kyle wonders if she has fully considered what life with a pregnant woman would look like. Chloe hasn't, but is determined to remain positive. When Mark overhears Chloe and Elly kissed and later sees Chloe head off with Elly to her ultrasound, his bright façade crumbles – he can't help feeling replaced.

During Elly's ultrasound, Chloe is way out of her depth. However, she's determined not to let that get in the way of a relationship she has dreamed about for months. She goes to David and asks him to tell her all the nitty-gritty details about being pregnant. She goes to Elly, armed with knowledge and a willingness to be a part of her pregnancy, but is it all too hard, too fast?
