It was that bloody alarm.

Theresa:
I made you some

lemonade. Have to keep hydrated.

You shouldn't have.

- I wanted to.

- Thank you.

Well. I should go.

No, wait.

Do you want to come in?

You look amazing.

It was important.

You're very brave.

Meeting Jon for lunch?

- How did you know?

- Just a hunch.

- Why don't you come with us?

- I shouldn't.

We'll buy you lunch.

Kate:
What... job do you do?

What you mean is, how do I scam

it so I always get my lunch off?

I made a lot of money

in Germany.

I have a portfolio of

investments that I keep track of

and a company that

really doesn't need me

to be there more than

20% of the time. So...

You must be a very good

businessman.

I know what I want.

And I focus on getting it.

That's why Jon and I get on.

We are the same animal.

If all goes well, in five years

or so, I can retire

and take care of the children.

Is there somewhere

i can breast feed?

- You can do it here.

- Everyone does in Germany.

It's all well, unless...

No. It's fine.

I'll get you some water.

Are you sure

you're okay with this?

Really. It helps.

Sometimes you seem very lonely.

Do I? Oh no, we have friends.

But... I think Justin and I,

we're different in a way,

and now he's at work

the whole time.

Why don't I take Billy,

just for a couple of hours

every now and then?

Give you a break.

- I couldn't ask.

- I'd love to.

Jon:

What are you two smiling about?

Nothing.

They put lemon in this one.

I hope it's alright.

Justin:
Maybe you should

cut out dairy.

- He was fine before.

- Well, he's not now.

Where's the spare key?

It's not on the hook.

Why do you need it now?

It's the middle of the night.

I don't need it now.

I just want to know where it is!

Go to bed.

You've got work in the morning.

Are you sure

you're going to be okay?

Of course!

It'll only be a few hours.

I really wanted to take him,

but the weather is so bad.

We'll be fine, won't we?

- You've got my number?

- I've got your number.

Now go!

Was he okay?

He slept like a baby.

And so did I.

Thank you so much.

How was it?

It was good.

I don't know.

I was just standing there and...

...and I just wanted him

to meet Billy so much.

- Maybe it's not warm enough.

- I warmed it on the stove.

Let's call someone.

- Justin:
Calm down.

- Something's wrong with him.

I'm taking him in.

Doctor:

We'll see what the tests say,

but I suspect it's an allergy

of some kind.

I'm going to recommend

you stop breast feeding.

- No.

- Well, if you want to carry on,

you'll have to cut out

all sorts of foods.

- Fine. Which foods?

Which foods?

There's nowhere to park.

Don't touch the light!

Jesus!

- Don't bring him in here!
