CLIVE: I made you feel anxious about work and you've got every right to be angry with me.
JANE: I wasn't really angry at Hendrix. It's Nicolette. It's tearing me apart.

CHLOE: I hope you know you don't deserve it.
Hendrix realises this and Jane's reaction was OTT. He isn't sure if he should tell Susan. Chloe can't make up his mind for him. She gently reminds him that Jane has a lot going on.

HENDRIX: Miss Harris had already told me off. I did it again which annoyed her. I'm sorry I shouldn't have ignored your instructions. Won't happen again.
SUSAN: That sound right to you?
JANE: That is partially what happened.
Hendrix insists it's correct, Susan sends him out of the office.

Ramsay Street
Levi and Ned realise they've both been asked to meet Amy outside her house, no mix-ups this time! Amy wants to be honest.

She doesn't feel she's in the right state of mind to be here. Hendrix doesn't think badly of her. He suggests bubble baths to help.
JANE: Why are you being so nice to me?
HENDRIX: I was looking through the shots that I filmed in school and I saw something that I wasn't supposed to. It was you having a breakdown.

No.24

DAVID: We didn't realise.

LEVI: Did you know about this Gran?
SHEILA: I'm as surprised as you are.

No.26

LEVI: It's amazing that you're here obviously.
EVELYN: Nothing's obvious until you say it.
She takes a good long look at him as they haven't seen each other for a while. She gives him a gift as she missed his birthday. Sheila tells him that they celebrated his birthday. The kids back in Portland helped her find the present. Sheila awkwardly tells Evelyn that she's heard all about the lovely house. The visit is spontaneous hence not telling him earlier.

Sheila goes to mention Amy but Levi cuts her off by offering his Mum a cup of tea.
Levi doesn't want Sheila to mention anything about Amy.
