Robert misunderstood Lynda’s suggestion of an early night yesterday and offered to make cocoa. He thinks she understands that he does want to return to their usual sex life but not just yet. Meanwhile, Lynda feels humiliated by the misunderstanding. She can’t expect him to feel desire for her anymore. She thinks on how Robert sees her and admits to herself that she has been difficult to live with recently. She doesn’t know how Robert puts up with her.
Emma rehearses what she will say to Fallon about hearing from Natasha that her job is on the line, and what working at the Tearoom means to her. After confronting Fallon, Emma’s sorry to have ever thought Fallon was going behind her back. She ended up comforting Fallon, who hopes business will improve enough that Emma doesn’t have to go. Meanwhile, Emma focuses on something that’s within her control. Banishing any self-doubt, she plans a trial livestream to demonstrate how her idea for a virtual Flower and Produce Show would work.
Fed up of Robert’s saintly behaviour, Lynda challenges him to write down what he doesn’t like about her. He struggles to fulfil the brief, finding no anger at how Lynda has been during her recovery. He worries that he is failing her and could lose her all over again. She keeps slipping away and he doesn’t know how to bring her back.
