Blake and Karen talk in the Diner. They are planning the night out with Karen’s new “partner”. They have problems since they have very little money. Karen sweet-talks Ailsa and they get some money.

Sophie talks to Steven. Steven’s head is still a bit sore. Steven reads an art book including naked women. Sophie gets offended and say he is a pervert! Steven says there is nothing disgusting with naked bodies and that it has nothing to do with sex.

Steven is out jogging and runs to Jennifer’s house. (Emotional music).

Jennifer isn’t home. Steven goes around the house and looks at veranda but no one is there.

Jennifer is at Diner with Alf and Ailsa early in the morning. They talk. Jennifer buys breakfast (Bacon and eggs).

Grant comes in and he is also up early. He meets Jennifer and they get to know each other a little bit.

Karen, Sophie and Blake’s class is about to start and Alan will begin to take over the class. Fisher introduces the class to Alan Stone. Alan starts class. Sophie says one little whisper to Blake about that Alan seems ok. Alan hears it and says, “Who spoke?” Sophie has to own up. He seems like a very hard teacher.

Steven comes into Fisher’s office as he talks to Grant. Steven says he has a headache due to hitting his head accidentally the other day. Grant feels the bump on his head. Steven is excused to go home. Steven don’t say the he got the bump out at Jennifer’s house. Fisher let Steven go home but is suspicious if Steven was telling the truth or not.

Alan gives class a lot of homework to be done by first thing tomorrow morning. And Sophie and two other students get to write 100 lines: “I will be more considerate of my fellow students”. Sophie speaks up and says she hasn’t done anything wrong really. So she gets 200 lines! Alan is apparently a very hard teacher. The class seem to hate their new teacher, which is totally understandable.

Blake, Karen and Sophie tell Grant how bad Alan is. Grant notices that the whole class seem to dislike him.

Grant tries to get them to have their hopes up. Blake reckons Alan is a sadist!

He says he wants to see if she has settled in ok. She asks for some help to move some furniture. Steven goes inside to help her to move it.
