Synopsis
Nicola has outstayed her welcome, and Emily is determined to send her packing. She tentatively questions if Nicola has had her boiler fixed and when she’ll be moving out. Trying to hide her bitterness, Nicola insists she’ll be out tonight. Paddy has had to cancel a fostering meeting, due to a last minute surgery call out. Emily is annoyed, hoping it won’t reflect badly on their chance to foster. The prospect of being homeless dawns on Nicola until she spies the perfect opportunity to stay another night by offering to keep Emily company, while Paddy works late. True to form, Nicola sets about stirring up trouble between Emily and Paddy, insisting that Paddy has a habit of working late, and neglecting Emily.
