Extended Summary

Pippa and Fisher are talking. He denies being Bobby’s father. Pippa is convinced he is her father anyway. Sally comes in with Dag Dog while they talk. Pippa gets annoyed and Sally goes out again.

Martin saw Matt in Diner with Leanne when Matt gave her reading lessons. Martin gets jealous and thinks Matt is trying to get her interested in him! Martin doesn’t know that he is only giving her reading lessons.

Fisher explains to Pippa that he really is Bobby’s father. Bobby walks in after that (emotional music plays)

While Fisher is still there, Pippa shows her the dress he bought for her. Pippa says it is from Tom and Pippa like Fisher wanted so Bobby won’t get suspicious about why Fisher bought it for her.

Gordon Macklin comes to Stacey’s office and talks to her. He says he wants to fire her from Macklin Development. She threatens to spoil the whole project with the use of the document file she stole from his office a while ago!

Matt continues to give Leanne reading lessons.

Lance gets the opportunity to start night classes with Martin, as he wanted. He starts night classes.

Bobby is very thankful for the dress but thinks Tom and Pippa shouldn’t have spent so much money (she doesn’t know that Fisher bought it). Tom doesn’t know what she is talking about!

Pippa explains to Tom that the dress is from Fisher and that he is her real father. Tom is very surprised!

Gordon comes to Morag and wants Roo to spy for him in Stacey’s office. He tells Morag he wants to “destroy” Stacey!

Lance didn’t do well on his first night class. He is very disappointed and tells Fisher he will quit it and that he doesn’t need Martin!
