Ruth is double- checking Joel's x- ray and says the doctor is right - it's nothing a bit of light physio won't fix.

Libby comes in and gives Joel a letter that's arrived - it's from a company called Dominator Sports - they're interested in sponsoring Joel. But they want to come and see him at the next triathlon in two weeks' time - if he's not back in peak condition by then, he's blown it.

Karl pops round to see Phil, but he's not there. Ruth invites him to join her for a cup of tea instead. They chat about Joel a bit, but Karl looks agitated.

KARL: Ruth, you and Susan are very good friends. And I hate to ask this...
RUTH: But you're going to ask it anyway.
KARL: I'm desperate. There's no- one else I can ask. You must talk. Does she ever talk about her feelings to you? Does she miss me?
RUTH:(awkwardly) I'm sure she does, or at least she misses what you had together.
KARL: But does she ever use the word 'reconciliation'? Has she ever given any hint that we...might be a family again?
RUTH: In a word, no. But that doesn't mean she doesn't think about it, I mean, who knows what goes on inside her head?
KARL: Yeah. Who *does* know?
RUTH: Look, um, whenever I talk to you, I feel kind of awkward, like I'm stuck in the middle or interfering...
KARL: I'm sorry, I shouldn't have...
RUTH: No, no. What I was going to say was, do you want me to have a talk to her and see if there's any hope?
KARL: Thank you, I appreciate it. I need to know, one way or another.

Anne says she sold them because Amy hadn't paid for them. Amy says her mum will kill her - they were Italian, and cost over $200! She rushes off to find them.

When she's gone, Anne tells Hannah that she didn't really sell Amy's jeans. They're safe in her locker!

Libby, Ruth and Anne are waiting for the news to come on. Hannah is heading off on her date with Mark.

Susan has come round and they are chatting about the news report.

RUTH: Uh, I actually had a visitor this morning.
SUSAN: Anyone I know?
RUTH:(laughs awkwardly) He came to see Phil, and, er, I was vaccuuming and about to have a cup of tea and I just...
SUSAN: Oh, Ruth, don't.
RUTH: What?
SUSAN: Don't apologise for talking to Karl. He's entitled to talk to anyone he wants to, so are you. I know how difficult this is - you and Phil must feel like you're stuck in the middle.
RUTH: Oh, not really.
SUSAN: Oh come on, I'm not completely insensitive, I saw how uncomfortable everyone was at the foxtrot. So what was he talking about?
RUTH: Are you sure you want to hear this?
SUSAN: Yeah.
RUTH: Uh, he's despserate, Susan. Really at rock bottom. Basically, he wanted to know if there's a chance, even the slightest chance that the two of you might get back together again.
SUSAN: He asked you to ask me?!
RUTH: No, it wasn't like that. I...I offered. I know, I shouldn't have done it, I promised myself I wouldn't get involved.
SUSAN: It's OK, it's OK. You and Phil are friends to both of us, how could you *not* get involved? And I'm sorry about that, I'm sorry about a lot of things, but...where Karl's concerned, my feelings haven't changed. It's over. Next time he asks, just tell him.

Joel pops around to hang out with Toadie. He says his knee is getting better (but he is still limping). Toadie tells Joel that he's decided not to be his manager after all. Joel tells him he's relieved. Also, he's decided not to compete in the next triathlon - he doesn't think he'll be ready. There'll be other chances.
