Extended Summary
Mr Oddly is still cropping up around the house, and Alf finally explodes when he finds someone has crept into his room during the night – placing Mr Oddly on his ceiling fan. He is adamant that the doll has to go, for good! Meanwhile, Marilyn is worried for Nicole in the wake of her break up with Penn. Nicole doesn’t want to talk about it, but she gives in to Marilyn’s constant questions. She feels like her life is out of control and there’s nothing she can do about it. Marilyn thinks she has a solution, and tells her they’ll have a cleansing ritual. But in order to do so, they need to make a sacrifice – and that night Mr Oddly ends up on the fire.
Tony is at a loss after finding the ticket to Boston. After talking with Miles, he stays with Gina, unable to face Rachel. When they finally do talk, he’s completely shocked to learn that Rachel plans on taking Harry with her. Tony is stubborn, refusing to let her do that. He’s outraged, she tries to explain it, but to him it’s clear she doesn’t want compromise. After hearing how bad things are with Rachel and Tony, Leah tries to help. She tells Rachel that she needs to think through what she’s doing, but Rachel is adamant. Then Leah has an idea – to call Lucas for help.
After his protective behaviour over Marilyn, Sid tries to bond with Dex, asking him to do a “guys” activity together. Dex wants to apologise to Marilyn for his behaviour – Sid doesn’t think it’s necessary, but Dex insists. Sid wants to know what he’s going to say, but Dex assures him it will be fine. But when he apologises to Marilyn, she calls him “sweet”, and this only serves to encourage his attraction.
