Jock gets the wrong end of the stick as he hears Frank say that Kim mustn't find out and to keep it a secret between him and Dolly. Alan and Caroline share a cosy picnic and he tells her that he wants to marry her and try again. She tells him that she thinks it is just a ploy so that he does not have to give her any compensation.
