The Vineyard
Glen explains to Leo that he is simply friendly with Kiri because they work together. Leo isn't too sure given what he's heard and just at that, Nicolette and Chloe reveal themselves as being the one to express their concerns to Leo about Glen "harassing" Kiri. Glen is not too surprised to see who is behind it and has answers to all their accusations. Eventually Glen comes up with a story that will get them off his back:
GLEN: I'm in love with Terese!
Hotel foyer
Paul finds Terese to comment on the perfect the timing of the article (out today) given the promotion for fashion week is due to commence tomorrow.
PAUL: I reckon by the time the launch happens, there isn't going to be anyone in Melbourne who hasn't heard of you, Mackenzie or Lassiters.
TERESE: Well, I'll make sure I capitalise.
PAUL: Mmm, I'm sure you will.
The Vineyard
Glen's admission that he is in love with Terese seems to be being bought if it wasn't for the "look" that he gives Kiri. Again, Glen thinks he's just being a good friend by hanging out with Kiri because she misses her family - an angle they hadn't considered. Glen hopes it doesn't get back to Kiri what he's doing, so that she feels "obligated" to hang out with him and of course who now happens to overhear the conversation - Kiri!
Ramsay Street
"We are going to be partners," is the news Amy was longing to hear after Melanie confirms she plans now to take out a fifty percent stake in the Drinks Diva. Cue lots of "thank you's" and plenty of squealing by both women!!!
Lassiters Complex
Harlow is in a world of her own so accidentally walks past one of the hotel's housekeeping employees (Katrina). She isn't impressed at being ignored nor at having to pick up the slack (along with Rebecca) since Harlow isn't doing her housekeeping job because of modelling for fashion week.
Corey trades places with Katrina and Harlow fills him in on why she's hated. "Her loss!" is his take and after complimenting Harlow on how she's looking, reveals that he's been looking into what is required to stay in Australia.
The Vineyard
As the pair walk through the vines, Kiri admits that what Glen thought hadn't actually crossed her mind... plus she is unamused at Nicolette and Chloe interfering in her life. "I like spending time with you," she gets out and admits that their chats are the highlight of her day. Kiri also makes it very clear that she doesn't want Glen to back off (as he offered to do) and given both like the friendship, they agree to forget about what has happened.
Changing the conversation, she is impressed at Glen keeping his feelings for Terese quiet for so long and encourages him to not "lose hope" despite the complications. She does though get him to promise that he won't cut himself off from being interested in anyone else.
Terese's office
Montana has heard that the investigation by the authorities into her is just about finished and she is about to be arrested. Given Lassiters stands to lose a small fortune, she begs Paul to cancel fashion week, but given he so wants Terese 'to pay', he turns down her request.
PAUL: Terese wants the opening of fashion week to be the most memorable event that Lassiters has ever seen. I suggest you let her get that wish.
Number 24
Nicolette and Chloe are waiting at the front door when Kiri arrives home so they can try to explain. The pair deny talking about Kiri behind her back, they simply thought she was too kind to tell Glen to back off. Kiri makes it abundantly clear that there's nothing between her and Glen, to which the pair profusely apologise.
KIRI: Save it, I'm not the one you embarrassed.
Number 30
Amy reassures Toadie that she is thrilled at Melanie upping her stake in the Drinks Diva as it means she has the money to pay her entry fee to fashion week plus more. Toadie is impressed at Amy for chasing her dream and how she's done that too.
Changing conversation slightly, Amy tells Toadie about her other plan - after fashion week is over, she and Ned are going to try and have a baby. "That is amazing," he replies back on hearing the news although Amy does know there is no guarantee that it will happen.
Harold's café
The K's aren't amused at Montana blanking them when she comes into the café for a meeting with Terese.
Terese is so thrilled at the article and plans to capitalise on it by upping the budget for fashion week by adding in lots of extras on the pretence of spending money to make money. Montana isn't jumping at her plan, especially the fireworks display to close out the week. She tries to get Terese to stick to the existing plans, but nothing seems to be getting through so a brusk "let me think about it," reels Terese in for now.
Lassiters Brasserie
Ned spots that Chloe is in a world of her own, so stops to ask if she is okay.
Number 32
Over a mother and daughter chat, Jane admits her relief that Nicolette hanging out with Chloe wasn't a sign that they were getting back together! "We just widely misunderstood how straight men work," is Nicolette's explanation over why she was in cahoots with Chloe.
Lassiters Brasserie
Chloe confirms to Ned that she was over Kiri... until she discovered that Kiri liked her too! She does reassure him thought that "nothing happened" as they both concluded that it was best "didn't go there."
NED: Smart!
CHLOE: Right... And then I went behind her back with Nicolette and accused her friend of being a sleaze.
Number 32
Nicolette bemoans to her mum that she's fairly certain that Kiri will be done with her now.
Lassiters Brasserie
Ned thinks there is a bright side... "now you don't have to worry about her wanting to sleep with you anymore."
Number 32
Jane can see a bright side too - given how obsessed she has been over Kiri, Nicolette now knows where she stands, and thus can meet someone new.
Lassiters Brasserie
Changing conversation totally, Chloe is unsure whether to say anything to Terese. Even though Glen asked her not to, she feels that Terese should know about Glen's "an ulterior motive" in wanting to move into #22.
The Waterhole
Corey is regaling travel tales to Harlow... but she's zoned out as she is staring at Ned who has come into the bar for a bottle of something. Thankfully she stops Corey whittering on by putting him out of his misery!
HARLOW: I can't do this.
COREY: What?
HARLOW: I'm sorry, I can't be with you.
Terese's office
Chloe stops by to congratulate Terese on how great the article is. In turn, Terese unloads about Montana being "disinterested" at her suggestion of upping the budget. Chloe thinks it's because Montana knows what she is doing and is already thinking about her next project although does see the positives - Terese is in full control.
Before they crack on, Terese can sense Chloe has something else to say to her.
CHLOE: There's a personal matter I think you should be aware of.
The Waterhole
Corey correctly guesses that it is Ned who is stopping Harlow being with him. He thinks that there is something between them, after what happened in London, but she doesn't want a relationship at the moment.
COREY: Take care Harlow.
HARLOW: You too.
Harold's café
Kiri thanks Leo for taking workplace harassment seriously but feels that its actually make things weird with Glen, who of course just walks into the café so somewhat curtails them chatting fully. Leo promises to have a word, which he does after Kiri leaves but its more about how Leo didn't handle things, like talking privately with Glen.
Leo then totally changes the subject to chatting about Glen's admission, and he remarks that Paul was right after all! Glen explains that Paul does actually know and about the promise made not to "ever go there" and wishes that today never happened!
Ramsay Street
The bubbles are out to celebrate the Drinks Diva's new partnership. Melanie suggests that while Amy is "turning heads" with her collection, she takes the van to fashion week with a signature cocktail. Amy is more than up for that brilliant suggestion.
Meanwhile Toadie pulls Ned aside to offer his "potential congratulations" after Amy told him about the baby news. Ned seems somewhat surprised at Amy mentioning it but does accept Toadie's offerings.
Harold's café
Terese gives Melanie's idea the thumbs up before hanging up to go chat with Glen.
"Don't be embarrassed," she begins with and admits that she too had visions of what would have happened if they'd pursued something, however "I'm just not in a place where I can get involved with anyone right now." Glen totally understands then confesses that he isn't actually in love with her! She does seem happy pleased at this revelation as Glen explains about his lie to get everyone off his back. He does add about asking everyone not to say something in case it got back to her, and they had this awkward conversation! Thankfully, Terese buys his explanation.
The Waterhole
The K's try a bit more forcefully to get Montana to talk to them and begrudgingly she agrees to them calling Mick tomorrow to set up a meeting. They head off to call Mick now, more because Terese barges in to talk to Montana - she is after a final decision over the additions to the budget.
MONTANA: The fireworks are a waste of money!
Terese looks crestfallen at her "show stopper" idea being dismissed like that. She keeps badgering Montana so much that eventually Montana caves and tells Terese to "do whatever you want, who am I to stop you."
TERESE: Thank you, you won't regret it!
Lassiters hotel, Corey's room
Corey is on the phone and tells whoever is on the end that Harlow has broken up with him.
COREY: We're going to need to meet and figure out a new plan.
