| "Family" |
| It's been 2 weeks since Shirley's
death. The Muldoon wing is being renamed
"The Shirley Gilroy Wing" in her
honour. There is an article about Hugo (and his
supposed family history) in the local paper. The
article is picked up by the city papers where it
comes to the attention of Hugo's father, Antec
Strzelecki, and he arrives in Wandin Valley to
confront Hugo. Kate has problems with a boil on
her rear end. Billy's been shoplifting odd items
from a store. Hugo is not happy to see his father
and they argue a lot. Kate invites Antec to stay
with them. Antec has a drinking problem and this
is partly why Hugo resents him. He wants Hugo to
come home to become a pastry cook like him and
Hugo has higher goals (namely the Tour de
France). Frank
is not dealing well with Shirl's absence. Esme is
worried about him. Billy shows Anna the stuff
he's stolen and why -- each item reminds him of
his parents. Anna gives him a picture of them to
put in a frame so he won't forget what they look
like. Kate learns that Antec has heart problems
and is taking medication. Hugo tries to get his
father arrested when he causes a drunken
disturbance at the club but Tom deposits him on
the doorstep of the flat instead. Antec nevers
goes inside, choosing instead to drink himself
into a stupor in the park. Kate and Harry
convince Hugo to go searching for him the next
day and they take him to the hospital.
Something is
killing Bernice's chooks. She decides to wait up
with a shotgun and ends up shooting Dog. Anna is
able to save Dog but now Darcy has to find a new
home for her. Esme forces Frank to deal with his
grief in a better way. Harry tries to help Kate
paint her flat but ends up spilling paint all
over her carpet. When he goes to the landlord to
explain, the landlord tells him that Kate and
Hugo have a week to clear out their stuff
(luckily for Harry, Kate's occupied with getting
her boil lanced when he breaks the news to her or
he'd be a dead man).
Hugo learns how
sick his father is and learns from his mother how
badly the business is going. He convinces Antec
to start going to AA meetings and Antec decides
he wants Hugo to continue to work towards his
dreams. Frank spreads Shirl's ashes on the
garden, so she'll still be nearby. Dog begins
training as a hospital pet and Kate becomes her
guardian. Terence arranges for Kate to move into
Frank's house, though Frank doesn't realize that
he'll also be getting Hugo and Dog. Frank is
pleased with the company.
