Kerry tells Madge that her reaction is senselessly violent, but Madge has had enough and tells Kerry to go to hell!

When Madge and Harold have gone, Kerry is very upset and ssays she didn't want to fight with Madge. Joe tries to calm her down, saying Madge will come around in the end. Joe says he used to play with guns as a child, but Kerry thinks that was just because Joe didn't know any alternative. It's sexist conditioning in Kerry's book. She goes off to see Toby.

Matt awkwardly excuses himself.

Ryan asks Gemma to go to a concert, but she doesn't want to go on a date - she had a boyfriend, Aidan, in Brisbane.
