Episode 2866

Hayley calls over to see Gypsy as she needs a hand with the cleaning up of the drop-in centre; an officer from the council is coming over. Gypsy finds the good Samaritan within her heart.
Duncan gets a certificate for English and is happy about it that he wants to show it to Shauna. Ailsa suggests he leave Shauna alone, and Alf tells him they are not getting along at the moment.
At the drop-in centre, Shelley is helping out and gives some orders to the kids. Will tells Dani that her mother is cool if she is helping out, but she says she cannot help being a regular Mother Teresa. An old man comes in but Mitch tells him the place is for under-21s. He complains, and Gypsy asks Shelley if he is really going to be thrown out as she does not like the idea. Shelley points out that they have to draw the line somewhere as a lot of kids coming in may have been abused by adults. Nick climbs up the ladder but Duncan stops him suggesting that he help Kirsty. Duncan pretends to Jade that heights make him dizzy.
Judith and Joel are having coffee at the Diner together; he suggests that they start afresh now that the kids have given them their blessing. She agrees and Edward and Peta come bursting in with great news. They thought the passports would take weeks, but it turns out there is only a few days wait, and after getting an email from his aunt, they can now enrol in her course next week. Judith thinks it is very soon; the next course won't be on for another few months. They are so happy and speak in Italian while heading out. Judith is not pleased to hear the news that soon.
Duncan and Nick are talking about the Sutherlands twins; Nick is sure Kirsty does not like him. Duncan does not believe him and asks the girls to the Diner for lunch. Kirsty walks away, so he asks Jade. Jade catches up with Kirsty later and tells her that they always have lunch together.
Gypsy and Will are talking; Dani sees them and when he comes to talk to her again, she says she would not not want to go near Gypsy's ex-boyfriend. Gypsy hears this and thinks Dani is nuts.
Duncan calls over to tell Shauna of his news, and she is delighted to hear of them. However, she was angry to hear of her mother's behaviour and her suggestions that he should not bother Shauna.
Gypsy calls over to the Sutherlands as she is full of ideas for the drop-in centre. Shelley is impressed with her and Gypsy feels better now that she is doing something more constructive instead of being destructive as her life was before.
Harry is not happy about his mother going out with Fisher. He decides to read her script and is staying up late to finish it. In the middle of it, Fisher and June return home. They had a great time and agree to do it again, before heading off to bed.
Ailsa leaves the Diner in the middle of the lunch hour. She finds Alf on the boat and tells him she must deal with her childhood demons...
