SUSAN: No Karl he's not. You couldn't be more wrong.
The penny seems to drop for Susan and she asks him if that is what is really worrying him but he doesn't answer, simply sits down at the table. "You are an awkward one at times" Susan tells him and with the hint of tears in his eyes he asks that she calls to let him know she has arrived.

Anne catches Billy outside on the sly as he plays basketball but Ruth has radar eyes and catches them, threatening to increase the ban to two weeks if they don't stop moaning. This has the desired effect as Billy slouches off home and she orders Anne inside.
Tim's house
Susan pulls up at the farm as Tim is chopping up some wood. They meet each other at the fence and Susan asks him to return to Erinsborough but Tim doesn't want to return because he's made an idiot of himself and isn't exactly Mr Popular. However, he hasn't bargained on Susan being so determined and she tells him that she can't allow him to throw away his education.
TIM: And what about us?
SUSAN: We have a friendship.
Tim tells her that he's never felt anything like this about someone before and can't sit in a classroom amongst his fellow pupils and pretend he feels nothing for her.
TIM: I don't care about school... all I want is you.

Eventually it's Lisa who explains to her what Phil is meaning and Sarah apologises, promising it won't happen again.
Tim's house
Susan is admiring the view from the yard and Tim is explaining the farm to her. She tells him about growing up in the country until she went to teacher training college and speaks about how they lost the farm after her dad died and asks Tim how he'd feel about losing the farm if he gave up his schooling because of her. Tim now cites it is going to be too hard to come back but she has a go at him for his 'giving up' attitude.
SUSAN: Don't do it Tim.
