JOSH: I don't know, is it?
AMBER: I don't know, is it?
JOSH: Why are you repeating?

Number 22 Backyard
Terese asks Josh why he came home early from training. She guesses it's to do with Amber, and suggests he go over and fix things with her rather than sitting here and sulking.

Harold's

Amber storms off, passing Mason as he goes.

Lauren tells Mason that she knows he's moving out. Mason says it isn't a done deal yet. Lauren says it's a big commitment to move in with someone and take on a child. She says this is something which affects three people's lives here, and she knows he wouldn't want to let Jackson down. Lauren says that what is thought to be the right decision may not be the best for everyone. Mason is left thinking seriously about it.

Number 28
Mason brings around the lease, but he hasn't signed it. Rhiannon gets a pen, and Mason tells her they should think a bit longer. They haven't thought about how they could afford it. Rhiannon says they'll make it work. He tells her they should maybe hold off on telling Jackson in case things don't work out, he doesn't want to get his hopes up. Rhiannon wonders if he's talking about the house, or their relationship. Jackson interrupts them; bringing seeds from Karl's garden, keen to start a new veggie patch in their new house.
