Will Kyle and Phoebe be able to forgive each other? Maddy’s first shift at Angelo’s goes awry. Charlotte takes desperate measures to cover her tracks.

Extended Summary

Kyle is angry after Phoebe accused him of forcing her into the pregnancy. He enters Angelo’s, and takes his anger out on Maddy as she’s working her first shift.

Later, as a broken Kyle is drunking to numb the pain, Phoebe recounts to Ash the awful things she said to him, and decides she needs to fix things. However, Kyle ignores Phoebe’s tests.

When Andy tells Kyle that getting drunk won’t help things, he promises to ease up. When Maddy messes up a pizza order and Andy tells her to give it to Kyle, he appreciates the gesture. However, things take an awkward turn when Angelo’s closes. Kyle, more drunk than he realised, tries to kiss Maddy, who pushes him away, and the pair are interrupted by Matt before anything can happen.

Meanwhile, Phoebe thanks Ash for his support through everything that’s gone on, appreciating how lucky they are to have each other. A furious Roo arrives outside the surf club and checks that Maddy’s okay, before heading off to deal with Kyle. But he’s not at his place, and Roo tells Ricky what happened. Ricky finds Kyle near the beach, and he admits he wasn’t thinking. When she points out that he isn’t himself, and he breaks down.

Ricky finds Maddy the next morning, and apologises for Kyle’s behaviour. Maddy is surprised when Ricky assumes she may press charges. Maddy’s willing to give him the benefit of the doubt, and doesn’t want to stop working at Angelo’s. Roo is still concerned, but Matt promises to keep an eye on things.

Ash comes clean to Ricky about how he feels about the baby. He tells her he feels like he’s dodged a bullet – the next few years of his life would have became a constant negotiation of sharing Phoebe and the baby with Kyle. However, Yet Phoebe overhears this, and walks away, cold. Ash apologises, but Phoebe admits that a part of her is relieved as well. Ash suggests they have a gathering to remember the babies. Phoebe’s unsure, but when she apologises to Kyle, he is on board with the idea – it feels right to say goodbye. Back at home, Ricky can see that Kyle is beginning to heal, as he picks up Casey and smiles.

When she finds  the coast clear, she begins to search Denny’s left-over things for the password, hoping to find it written down. She finally finds Denny’s box, and a notebook contained within, but is distrurbed as Chris arrives, and she’s forced to hide.
