The Coffee Shop
Bill buys some food for work, where he plans to finish Anne's birthday present. As he leaves, Lance comes in and Madge asks him what he wants. He says he's got no money again, but Madge says that the term 'customer' usually means buying things, so he orders a coffee. Chris comes in and they sit down at a table. Lance says he's had some money from a gardening job and now had $200 to lay on a bet. Chris asks if he wants to bet that much, since he's not had much of a run. Lance says it's his money so he'll do with it what he likes. After tomorrow, he'll be legal so he won't need to ask him to lay on any more bets. Lance invites him to the party and Chris says hopefully they'll have something extra to celebrate.

When he opens the door however, it's Amy standing there. Billy tries to stop her, but she forces her way in. Damian didn't show up for their date, saying his car broke down. Billy says she's making excuses for him. If it was Lance, she'd have punched him out. Billy suggests that she still has the hots for Lance, which she denies. She says she still hasn't forgiven him for the way he behaved at the dinner party, and that she hopes he behaves himself at the dinner party.

No 26
Lance, Anne & Amy are sat on the couch. Amy asks Lance what he thinks his present is. Unenthusiastically he declares 'a book'. She says he could at least pretend he didn't know. As he's opening it Lance says 'it looks like a book, it feels like a book....and knock me down with a feather, it's a book'. Amy says he doesn't like it. Lance says he doesn't even know what it's about yet. Anne accuses Amy of being paranoid. Amy says it's about this really cool travel writer (it looks like it's Bill Bryson's A Walk In The Woods - very good book, says Bouncer;)
Phil comes in with pastries, saying they should taste them early in case they're poisoned, he jokes. Amy doesn't understnd why they're not more excited. Hannah says she has more presents which she gives to them both. They joke about it being something french, like a beret or a croissant, but in fact it's underwear. Hannah: "Anyone who says Oooh La La' gets a punch. Everyone :"Ooh La La' Lance doesn't open his. Well, that book is good. Phil says they can pick up the Ute any time Lance wants. Amy: 'you know what this reminds me of? The time my pet bunny Sparky got run over by a car. We couldn't figure out whether to bury him in one box or two'. She orders them to cheer up.

Lance & Anne come in and sit down. She says she wondered where he'd got to. He says he was just collecting their presents from Harold & Madge. The barman brings wine & glasses over. Hannah is pleased, but Ruth says she can't have any, as this is Erinsborough, not France. 'Lou offered me half a dozen bottles of Pear Passion on the house, but I just thought this was more appropriate '. Just then Bill & Phil walk in and Bill (finally!) wishes Anne a happy birthday. She wonders what's going on, but he says 'all will be revealed. Phil says that Amy wants them both to wear blindfolds on the way home.

No 30 backyard/Kitchen
Quite a party going on here. Anne tells Lance what she got him for his birthday. She asks what he got her. He says what he got her isn't ready yet and he'll give it to her later. She jokes 'When? Our 19th?' He goes into No 30's kitchen as Chris walks in the front door. He hands Lance an envelope. Just then Anne walks in from the backyard, unseen. Lance says he's pleased to see the money as he thought he'd blown his money again. Chris spots Anne just then. When Lance realises she's there, he tries to leave. Anne lets Chris go out back, but stops Lance. She says that Lance has lied too many times about giving up gambling, and she's never going to trust him again. "are you going to tell Mum & Phil, or do you want me too?" Phil calls to them from outside.
When they go outside, Phil clears the way for them to make a speech. Ruth gathers them in front of her and makes another speech about how difficult it has been raising twins and everything they've been through, but she's very proud of both of them.
