Janae’s shattered when Boyd doesn’t automatically believe her in the aftermath of Glenn’s car accident. Though Boyd eventually believes Janae didn’t tamper with the car, Janae realises his statement carries little weight. She hits upon a calculated plan to win Boyd back: he’s got a two-week amnesty to be with whomever he wants and sort his feelings out – and after that he has to choose if he wants to save the marriage. But following a heart-to-heart with Karl – and realising that Janae doesn’t actually expect him to cheat – duplicitous Boyd seizes the opportunity to rekindle his affair with Glenn.
Determined to fix the mess she made with Pepper, Lolly comes clean to Susan about the incidents that led to Pepper’s dismissal. Just when she thought her troubles were over, Lolly and Lou are horrified to hear of Glenn’s serious car accident – Lolly tampered with the wrong car.
Though she means well, Pepper’s outrageous initial ploy to prove Rosie isn’t gay draws Rosie’s ire and leaves Frazer floundering. Subsequently taking a more subdued approach, Pepper finally coaxes out the truth: Rosie’s using the kiss as an excuse not to give Frazer another chance.
In the wake of Karl’s decision to re-enter the work force as a receptionist, Susan lets Rosie and Pepper in on a secret: she secretly misses the infuriating, proud Alpha-male side of Karl’s personality that used to drive her balmy.
