Extended Summary
Ash, Andy, Billie and Phoebe are celebrating at Angelo’s, having found a permanent place for their garage. When Kat joins them Phoebe can tell something’s up and Kat admits she had ‘a moment’ with Dylan. She’s starting to wonder if he’s changed. Ash is unaware that something’s up with Kat and wants to make a toast thanking her for being their majority investor. Dylan, unseen by the others, enters and clocks Kat and Ash being close. His jealousy starts to rear up.
Irene is preparing to welcome Claire. Olivia’s uneasy about Claire, but knows Irene doesn’t want to do a DNA test yet because she’s convinced Claire is her daughter. Irene asks Olivia to be kind to Claire, and Olivia agrees for Irene’s sake. Things go well when Claire first arrives, but soon Claire reveals that she is broke and Irene offers to pay for her flights. Olivia’s suspicions go into overdrive and she tells Skye she’s going to expose Claire for the con-artist Olivia believes she is.
Kat decides to confront Dylan about their ‘moment’ the previous evening, but he dodges the subject. Kat calls him out and Dylan admits there was a moment, but he thought she’d want to avoid it seeing as she’s the one rebuffing him. He makes a crack about her being interested in someone else – Ash. Kat sets him straight, there’s nothing going on there. But Dylan has to let go of the idea of her and him as a couple. Dylan replies it’s hard to let someone like Kat go. He’s sincere and it leaves Kat thrown.
Meanwhile, Olivia goes to Roo with her suspicions about Claire. When Irene and Claire come in for coffees, Roo gets her chance and chats with Claire. During the conversation, Claire slips up when talking about her past, leaving Roo worried. Roo goes to Morag and asks her to investigate Claire. Morag has her reservations, but reluctantly agrees.
Kat finds out she’s been given a promotion. She’s over the moon, as she wasn’t expecting it. But after she tells Dylan she remembers he’s just missed out on one so she dials her enthusiasm back. Genuinely sweet, Dylan says she doesn’t have to downplay her excitement for him – he’s glad for her. Kat’s touched and pleased her hard work’s paid off. Dylan is too.
Ash and Co. start their first day of business in good spirits as they fix up the garage. Unfortunately their first customer is Dylan. Ash tells Dylan to leave, but Dylan convinces Ash that he’s trying to extend the olive branch. Andy tells Ash they could use the money. Reluctantly Ash agrees to service Dylan’s car.
When Kat has lunch with Phoebe she admits she believes Dylan’s changed. He’s a different man. Phoebe cautions Kat – she’s not sure if he really could have changed. She wants Kat to be careful.
Morag gets back to Roo, Olivia and Skye – she’s found nothing on Claire. It seems her story checks out. Olivia tries to argue, but the others decide to back off. Olivia remains unconvinced and decides to take matters in her own hands, confiding in Skye that she’s bought a home DNA testing kit.
Kat checks out the garage and hears Dylan was their first customer. She’s surprised when Ash says Dylan was actually acting like a decent bloke. Unbeknownst to them, Dylan’s obsessively watching a video of his proposal to Kat over and over again. When Kat runs into him later he convinces her to join him for dinner. It looks like Kat could be falling back into his web…
