After waking up with him in his bed, she goes to Richard and Étienne's house. An argument breaks out between all of them, and Áine leaves alone in a taxi and goes to Freddie's flat. The group go to a nightclub, where Áine sees Tom she is disappointed that he is drinking again.

She goes home, where she talks to her flatmate Bradley, his sister and a friend of his. Áine's ex-boyfriend Freddie texts her and they meet in a bar. Shona is annoyed by the conversation including pressure being put on her to have children (mostly by her mother) Shona tells everyone there that she has never wanted to become a mother.

The women join Vish and his family to celebrate his father's birthday. Áine and Shona's mother – who lives in Ireland – visits them. Áine is horrified when she finds out from Shona that David is their cousin rather than her date. Whilst walking home, she sees her drunken elderly neighbour, Pat, and brings him back to Shona's.

She finds him boring, but kisses him before telling him that she does not want to see him again. He takes Áine to the café which is below his flat. Shona and Charlotte go to Shona's, leaving Áine and David in the pub. She arrives and sees that they are accompanied by a young man, David, whom Áine assumes to be her date. Shona tells Áine to meet her and Charlotte in the pub. She also tells Áine that she is going to set Áine up on a blind date, despite Áine's reluctance. Shona tells Áine that they are going to meet a male cousin of theirs to please their mother. Áine tells Shona that there are rats in her flat and stays at Shona's whilst they are killed and removed. She then goes to Shona's flat, where Shona's partner Vish becomes annoyed at the sisters' conversation as they sit on either side of him on the sofa. Áine briefly visits Richard and Étienne, arranging the next lesson for Monday. She arranges with Richard for the lesson to take place there at 5 pm the following day. Áine's trip to the hospital causes her to be late for her lesson with Étienne, which he and Richard are disappointed by. Whilst there, she talks to a Bulgarian nurse who translates what Victor says, which is that his injury was caused by a falling brick from the building site which he was working on. After wrongly assuming it to have been caused by a xenophobic attack, Áine takes him to the hospital. One of Áine's students, a young Bulgarian man called Victor, arrives to her class with a moderate cut on his head. James asks Áine to visit him at his house to introduce herself before their first lesson at 5 pm the following day, which she does. Étienne needs to learn English after having moved from France to England to live with his father Richard (whom he had not previously known) a month ago because Étienne's mother died. Áine's manager James assigns her to tutor a 12-year-old French boy, Étienne, at his house. He misses the last train home and shares her bed, annoying her with his snoring. She tries to initiate sex with him, which he rejects. However, after Shona leaves, Áine stays at her flat for a bit, before going home, where she invites Tom, who had been in rehabilitation with her & to whom she is not sexually attracted. She tells Shona that she will join her at a party. Four months later, Áine has returned to teaching a class of adult English-language learners. The sisters are disappointed with the centre due to its lack of facilities and most of the residents having substance use disorders in comparison to the nervous breakdown that Áine had. Áine leaves a rehabilitation centre in Archway, north London, where she is met by her sister Shona.
