Jim tells the family that Maria is having an engagement party for him tonight. Julie is not impressed.

When Jim has gone, Scott tells Julie off. Julie says that Jim shouldn't be marrying someone he hardly knows. Paul tells them not to argue about Anna in front of Lucy.

PAUL: Julie, just grow up! Dad needs a little more in his life than roast dinner every Sunday!

He tells Julie to invite Peter to the party, so she can keep out of everyone's hair!

Danny's bedroom
Maria is changing the bed and cleaning Danny's room a bit. Shane helps her to fold clothes. Shane says that things see a bit tense between Maria and Max. He says he remembers the last time Max and Maria split up, but he was just a kid then.

SHANE: Do you still love Dad, Mum?
MARIA: Yes. The question is, does he believe it?

The Bank
Paul comes down to the bank to make a withdrawal. He bumps into Peter and tells him about the party at the Ramsay House.

Peter comes up to the counter and Julie says that she isn't going to the party. Peter tells her to force herself - they could sit in a corner together. Julie agrees.

The Park
Jim meets Anna by the lake. She's asked him to meet her to talk about their relationship. She says that she can't cope - things have happened so quickly and caused a rift between Max and Maria. She's also worried about Julie.

ANNA: I hope we're doing the right thing.
JIM: You love me, don't you?
ANNA: Yes.
JIM: Then we're doing the right thing.

Jim gives Anna a present - an engagement ring. He puts it on her finger.

Ramsays
Carol has come round to help Maria to cook. They chat about their husbands and Carol moans that she never sees her husband. Carol asks if Daphne is coming.

Just then, Anna comes home. She goes into the kitchen, quite upset.

Maria shows Carol out then goes to see how Anna is. Anna says that Jim doesn't seem to understand her feelings. She's worried about the families - she's led a sheltered life. She tells Maria she was going to tell Jim she was going back to Queensland, but then he gave her an engagement ring. Maria admires the ring and says that Jim is a wonderful man and they are perfect for each other. But Anna says she owes a lot to Gino. Maria says she can't marry Gino out of gratitude, like she did Max.

Robinsons
Mrs Armitage comes round to see Helen. Helen is not very pleased to see her. She bangs on about her husband then tells Helen that she's heard some gossip. She tells Helen she understand what drink does to a person.

HELEN: Drink?!

She seems to be saying that Helen is an alcoholic(!) Mrs Armitage tells Helen to rise above it all and not listen to gossip. Helen rolls her eyes.

Swimming Pool
Danny is training again. Scott is there too. Danny says that he's going to show Max just how good he is - he's going to be the best. They start a water fight.

Robinsons
Lucy is missing Helen again - she's helping out with the two boys. Julie is winding Lucy up about Anna again. Scott comes in and looks suspiciously at Lucy. Julie distracts him and tells him there's a letter for him in the living room.

Scott's room
Scott reads the letter - it's from Kim. Apparently she's fine. He shows the letter to Paul. Paul says that now Scott can stop worrying.

Paul gives Scott a card to sign for Dad and Anna. He's still fed up with Julie's antics though.

Ramsays - engagement party
The guests have arrived and are milling around. Jim and Anna drink a toast to each other. Jim tells Max that he appreciates the party and asks Max to be best man at the wedding. He tells Jim he's sorry, but he can't.

Maria invites Julie to see Anna's ring, but she rudely walks away.

Paul makes a nice speech welcoming Anna to the Robinson family. Anna is very pleased. There's also a present. Julie is not pleased.

In the kitchen, Carol tells Shane that she's used to going out on her own without her husband Ted. Carol says she thinks it's a disgrace having Daphne on the street. Shane defends her.

Carol tells Julie that people should think very carefully before getting married. She winds Julie up about having a stepmother, saying you can get used to anything if you have to.

JULIE: Mmm. If you have to.

In the living room, Carol chats up Paul and Shane. She moans about her husband again. Shane gets rid of her. He tells Paul that Ted is a womaniser.

Maria is trying to get Max to make a toast and he reluctantly agrees. He makes a toast, "To Anna and Jim, congratulations". The guests cheer, all except Julie who looks sulky.

Robinsons
Helen has come home from Mrs Crowley's. She has a brooch she wants to give to Anna. She says she feels sorry that Anna has to put up with Julie, Lucy and Max. Helen says she could throttle Julie. She says that Julie has made the house her own and doesn't want another woman in the house. Helen says she has no worries about another woman replacing Anne - Anne would have hated Jim to be lonely. They head off to join the party.

Ramsays - engagement party
Max is explaining to Carol that the street was named after his grandfather.

Helen gives Anna the brooch - it's a cameo one. Anna is very pleased.

JULIE:(shouting) You can't give her that! That was my mother's!

Helen says calmly that it belonged to her mother and she can give it to anyone she pleased.

Julie yells that she's taking everything away from her family. Then she slaps Anna and runs out.

Robinsons
Julie storms in and puts the kettle on. Jim has followed her, seething with rage.

JIM: I never hit you in your life. But I came so close to it back there.

He tells Julie that he wants her to go back to the party and apologise, but she won't. He tells Julie he's going to marry Anna, and unless she stops behaving like a child, he wants Julie to move out of the Robinson house.
