Jasmine is thrilled when Robbo suggests a road trip. Tori decides to put Robbo and Jasmine’s happiness first. Will an unhappy Mason choose a new path?

Extended Summary

Robbo asks Jasmine if she meant what she said. Jasmine says she’s serious about meeting his parents although she’s sorry for dropping it on him now. He gets a text from Tori and has to get going. Jasmine tells him to concentrate on Tori and they’ll talk after. Later, Jasmine is at the gym with Mason. They briefly discuss Tori’s scan then Jasmine asks Mason if he wouldn’t introduce someone he was with to his family. Mason says he wouldn’t at first, for privacy, but once he was committed he would. Jasmine explains about not having met Robbo’s family.

Ziggy is at the surf club where Ben is looking for Dean: He needs him to look after the board shop while he makes a start on the boards. Ziggy explains about Mackenzie being Dean’s sister and that he’s spending time with her. She’s there to stand in for him, since she’s got nothing else to do except wait for her TAFE results. Ben heads home, where he sits at the table planning out a schedule. Maggie offers to help but he says he needs to plan out his work space, asking her to leave it to him.

Justin is at the Morgan house when Tori and Robbo arrive back, having decided to work from home. Tori says the scan looked okay to her but they’re waiting to hear from the obstetrician. Both Robbo and Justin fuss over her, offering to get her food and drink, but Tori tells them to leave her. Justin decides to go and see Ziggy while Robbo decides to let Jasmine know. Justin heads to the surf club and tells Ziggy he got an e-mail with her assessment results. Ziggy admits she hasn’t looked and thinks she’s failed. Justin hands her a print-out and she’s astonished to see she aced it. She decides to take a break and have a celebratory surf.

Tori is on the phone to Raffy, telling her there’s no news. Jasmine turns up with pastries. Robbo quietly asks her not to mention meeting his parents or postponing the wedding to Tori. Jasmine tries to leave quickly but Tori insists she stays. She also says she has a craving for watermelon juice, sending Robbo to the surf club to get some. She asks Jasmine what’s wrong but Jasmine denies there’s anything. Down on the beach, Justin asks Ziggy if she’ll be staying on at the garage, recalling that once she couldn’t wait to get out of there. Ziggy notes they make a good team now and asks if she’ll get a pay rise as a second year apprentice. Justin says she’s funny.

Mason has called Robbo to the gym since the computer has crashed and says they need new software. Robbo asks him to sort it and also do new rosters. Mason reminds him that he’s meant to be having a few days off next week to meet friends in the city; Robbo says it’s fine. Mason asks if Jasmine’s okay, since she came round earlier. Back at the house, Tori tries to get Jasmine to tell her what’s wrong. Jasmine says it’s nothing to do with Tori and eventually explains she asked to see Robbo’s parents and he said it was impossible. She worries that he thinks they won’t like her. Robbo arrives back and Tori invites Jasmine to stay for dinner. Robbo is a bit suspicious that she doesn’t drink the juice.

Ziggy meets Maggie at the Diner, saying she’s taking a lunch break. Maggie has similarly gone there to do her work because of the atmosphere at home. She saw Ziggy’s results and Ziggy notes it’s the first time she’s got an A in anything. Ziggy thinks Ben is fine but Maggie is worried about him. Meanwhile, Tori, Jasmine and Robbo finish their lunch. Tori drops heavy hints before going to lie down. Robbo isn’t entirely happy that Jasmine told her and Jasmine says Tori thought it was her fault. Robbo says he’s not against her meeting his parents but needs to be there for Tori. Jasmine agrees to forget about postponing and goes to post the invites. They don’t realise Tori has been listening from the corridor.

Robbo paces, stares at the phone and even flicks through a magazine. Tori rejoins him and confirms she knows about Jasmine, saying it’s not an unreasonable request. Her phone then rings: It’s Dr Andrews. Tori answers and says she understands and will book another appointment. She tells Robbo nothing’s changed since the last scan. Since nothing’s going to happen for a week, he can take Jasmine to his parents. Jasmine has nearly reached the post box when Robbo catches up to her. He tells her Tori’s news, then takes the invite for his parents from the pile and suggests they hand deliver it.

Ziggy arrives home and finds Ben is still struggling to get boards done as well as not being sure where to store the materials. Ziggy suggests she get Dean over and they help him move them, as well as getting Maggie to bring pizza. She also asks if Dean can stay the night. Ben notes she’s never asked before but agrees to all of it. Meanwhile, in a park area, Robbo is asking Mason to keep an eye on the gym, saying he’ll be gone five or six days. Mason is annoyed since it means he won’t get his time off. Justin comes along and Robbo tells him they got the news they wanted and asks him to look after Tori, who’s taking early maternity leave. As Robbo drives off with Jasmine, Justin gets a call from Tori that doesn’t seem to match what he’s just heard: He says he’s on his way.

At the gym, Maggie tells Mason about getting pizza for Ben and the others. Mason notes it must be good to have your own business and do what you love; he’s beginning to feel like he’ll be working at the gym forever. He looks through the pile of paperwork without enthusiasm. At the Morgan house, Tori tells Justin that despite what she told Robbo things have got worse: If they keep going that way, she could go into premature labour. However, she doesn’t want to spoil things between Robbo and Jasmine. Justin hugs her.
