Gail Robinson arrives in Ramsay Street after Paul had rung her to inform her about the trouble that Cameron is in. She appears to have a calming effect on Elle and Paul but Izzy remains very distressed at the whole situation. Upon seeing Robert lying in Erinsborough hospital, where he had been transferred at Paul’s request, Gail’s frustration boils over and she clashes with Paul over what has happened to their children since they have arrived in Erinsborough and spent time with him in Ramsay Street. She regains her composure quickly though and Paul is left to explain his own disappointment with events and how he feels that his lack of parenting for much of there life and the questionable way he has conducted himself may be a good part of what has gone wrong.

Janae gets a shock when she finds Boyd fast asleep and buried on the couch in number 30 shortly before his very important fist University exam. Janae gets to the cause of the problem quickly but Toadie isn’t around and Janae is left to bury her anger at him whilst she attempts to order Boyd to Uni. Sometime during the beer drinking and World Cup soccer watching Boyd had done with Toadie the previous evening Boyd had got a stethoscope super glued to his hand and a pen to his hand. He remains groggy whilst Janae gets him into a standing position and moves him to their bedroom to get him dressed. A short time later and there outside on the street and Jane enlists the help of Dylan to drive Boyd to his exam. Dylan revels in Boyd’s appearances and makes a whole host of stethoscope and pen jokes as they climb into the car and drive off. Dylan continues the joking on the way back. Janae presses Boyd about how the exam when but he doesn’t seem too confident given the lack of studying and the fact that he was late and in no condition to site the exam.

With the news of her pregnancy Sky is supported by Lou and Mishka. Lou feels Harold should be here to help her and worries about his own skills at dealing with such a situation however Mishka suggests her should play a part as he is can offer strong advice for Sky. Having talked things through with the both of them Sky makes a difficult call to J.P in which she explains what has happened. J.P tells her that he is unable to have children, which leaves Sky with the knowledge that Dylan is the father of the child. Spurred on by Lou and Mishka again Sky makes an attempt to tell Dylan about her pregnancy. Dylan is still attempting to ignore her though and brushes away her attempts to strike up a conversation.

Janae comes up with a plan to set up a web blog in an effort to improve her and Boyd’s financial situation. She tells Boyd about her plan to document the goings on in number 30 and the mess that the guy that inhabit the house find themselves in. The money is to come from advertising as the site becomes popular.

Izzy finds herself on the outside looking in as the Robinsons pull together as the true horror of the Robert situation comes to light. Gail is quickly accepted by both Paul and Elle leaving Izzy hovering around as they comfort each other. Izzy also finds herself snapping at Gail as the topic of Cameron comes up, expressing her belief that the faults his is appearing to display are down to poor upbringing.
