But first, there's someone she's dying to meet.

Kate fills Lucy in on Mason's robbery. Paul says that it isn't Mason's first offence either. He then points Mason out when he enters the bar.

Lucy says she can't give her blessing, but reminds Paul that Mason isn't the only one facing charges at the moment. Kate tells Paul that she's not going to stop seeing Mason so she thinks she needs to move out. Kate leaves to join Mason. Lucy tells Paul off for his behaviour towards Kate, and the corruption charges. Paul assures Lucy there's nothing to them. Lucy tells Paul to get the status report finished.

SHEILA: What?
KYLE: Code for gay person lives here. Must be employed.
SHEILA: Female preferred.

SHEILA: We got along eventually and at least she knew how to put the toilet seat down.

Chris arrives and invites them to a surprise party for Amber. Sheila won't go as she thinks the family are trouble.

CHRIS: Well regardless of what you think of Mason, you're punishing the whole family when you should be supporting them. Come on, isn't that what neighbours are for?

Kyle agrees, and leaves to support his neighbours.

Lassiters Reception
Paul asks Tony, the hotel manager, about his new baby, and his mortgage. He says it must be difficult living on one income in this day and age. Paul offers Tony a nice cash bonus, if Tony were to say the police that he witnessed Alan Hewitt trying to extort money from him. Tony questions Paul on why he would have paid Alan off from a Lassiters account, Paul says it was for renovations to his house as he has to do a lot of work from home, a lot of entertaining clients.

Number 32
Lou, Matt and Lauren are chatting about Bailey, they hope his black eye will clear before his interview with the police, but Lauren can't believe Bailey got into a fight. Lou thinks black eyes are a rite of passage. Karl and Sheila arrive with presents. Sheila is nervous, and goes a bit over the top saying how

LAUREN: To be honest I didn't think anyone would come.
LOU: Lauren's convinced people will think of us as the bad eggs of the neighbourhood
SHEILA: Well SOME people may have jumped to some early conclusions, but I think you'll find that once they calm down then we'll.... they'll see some sense.

Lauren thanks Sheila, and they all drink some champagne.

Kate says she could lose her job for searching a pupil's locker without permission. She hands Kyle the key and they open the pupils' locker, searching through it but not finding anything in there.

Charlie's
Lucy questions Paul on the company's finances. She knows $10,000 was paid on the day Alan Hewitt was bribed, and she knows $5,000 was withdrawn today.

PAUL: Well I had another legitimate transaction.
LUCY: If you call trying to bribe your own Hotel Manager to support your story legitimate, then yes I suppose it is.
PAUL: Do you want the Lassiter's name saved, or not?

Lucy brings up the Elaine Lawson settlement as well, and he wouldn't have had to make that settlement if he'd done things properly. Lucy says this has to stop, she's cleaning house, starting with Tony. She can't work with someone who can be so easily bought off. She won't sack him, she'll find him a position in this company so he can never speak of this again. She'll need to find a new hotel manager herself, someone who can put this place in order.

LUCY: As head of this company I'm telling you there's a lot of work to be done if you want to stay in this chain.
PAUL: You would honestly kick us out?
LUCY: This isn't a five star operation. I cannot believe that head office has not stepped in sooner.
PAUL: Wow, so much for family loyalty.
LUCY: It's because I'm your sister, it's the reason I'm doing this, okay. And it's also the reason I'll use all my resources to get the application approved by council.
PAUL: You'd do that?
LUCY: I would. But there's one condition, from now on what I say goes. Okay?

Number 32
Chris asks Sheila if she's cool with Kate moving in.

SHEILA: I love it! Finally, some civilised company around the place. I always liked Kate.
CHRIS: Yeah, I remember when you tried to set her up with Kyle.
SHEILA: Yeah, not one of my best ideas, I must admit.
CHRIS: Well you won't be able to matchmake for Kyle or Kate now that they both have partners. What will you do with your spare time?
SHEILA: Easy, I'm going to find you a fabulous spunk!

Sheila heads outside, while Amber comes through. She thanks Chris for being amazing, and for her present.

CHRIS: Well I do have amazing taste, especially in friends.
AMBER: Thank you, it's been the most incredible day.
CHRIS: Well you are the most incredible person. Happy Birthday
