Aisling and Danielle struggle to cope with the normality that has come from them being apart. Aisling is stuck in small-town Mallow, where her mother is constantly leaving her holding the baby, while Danielle is settling into the Vancouver arts community with varying degrees of success and avoiding contact from Aisling at all costs.

Aisling gets a new job, despite turning up for the interview hungover, and Danielle is tempted to forgive her - but first she has a party to organise, which is not going to plan.
