Annie warns Matt that Henry wants a word with him later. Beattie sends Ben to find out what the Sugdens are getting the twins for their birthday so they won't get the same thing, he won't tell them what she's getting anyway. Henry has his chat with Matt in an attempt to cheer him up, but is surprised when Matt ends up cheering him up instead. Alison gives Henry two bears to give to the twins for their birthday.
