Lynn and Phillipe arrive back from the cinema laughing. They explain that one of Lynn's shoes was stolen.
Kevin tells them to keep the noise down, or they'll wake Davey. He isn't happy. He disappears into the
kitchen, while Lynn goes upstairs. Amanda looks smug.
Later, they are having dinner in the kitchen. Lynn is still talking about losing her shoe, and Kevin tells
her to change the subject - it isn't funny anymore. He tells them that they weren't expecting him home so
early, and all week they've probably been listening for the key in the door so they wouldn't get caught.
He asks Lynn and Phillipe if there's something going on between them. They answer at the same time.
Lynn says no. Phillipe says yes. Later, Lynn explains to Kevin that she was lonely in Paris, and he hadn't
called or written to her so she assumed their marriage was over. On the night of their wedding
anniversary, Phillipe sent her a lovely bunch of flowers and she went over to his place to thank him. Lynn
adds that she didn't tell Phillipe she was married, and swears that nothing has happened between them
since that night. Kevin threatens to throw Phillipe out, but Lynn says she won't let him. Kevin storms out.
Phillipe tries to explain, but Kevin pushes him away, telling him to stay out of his way or he'll bash his
head in. Kevin leaves. Amanda tells Lynn she'll go after Kevin and he'll come back. Lynn starts crying
and tells Amanda to tell him not to bother until he grows up.
Later, at Toorak, Kevin is in Amanda's room. Kevin asks if he has to sleep on the couch and Amanda tells
him that they do have beds. Kevin asks if her father will mind him staying there. Amanda tells him that
he doesn't have to know. She starts massaging Kevin's back and tells him to relax - she'll look after him.

The next morning at The Terrace, Lynn phones David and asks him if Kevin stayed there last night, as
he didn't come home. David says he didn't. Lynn remarks that he probably came home and sneaked into the
spare room, so as not to disturb her. Lynn tells Phillipe she wonders where Kevin stayed, as he didn't take
his wallet with him. Phillipe tells Lynn that Amanda probably spilled the beans about them - she got him to
tell her about Paris, and it's obvious she wants Kevin for herself. He suggests that Lynn phones the
Morrell house to see if Kevin is there. Lynn says she doesn't want to know.
At Toorak, Kevin tells Amanda that he has to go home and change. Amanda tells him she'll sneak him out
the back so no one sees him. Kevin thanks her for everything. Amanda persuades Kevin to tell Lynn that he
spent the night with her - after all the lies that Lynn has been telling, he might as well come out with it.
Wayne is looking out of the dining room window when Dee comes in. She asks him what he is looking at.
Wayne tells her that Amanda is sneaking Kevin out the back door. Dee tells him that Amanda has been after
Kevin to get back at Lynn. She asks him what he thinks of Amanda. Wayne tells her that she is a spoilt
little brat. Dee asks him if he finds her attractive. Wayne tells Dee that Amanda is cute and needs someone
to bring her into line, but definitely not him. Dee looks slyly at Wayne.

Kevin returns to The Terrace. Lynn asks him where he was all night. Kevin tells her he wasn't lonely. Lynn
realises he spent the night with Amanda and is disgusted with him. She tells Kevin that Amanda is just
trying to split them up. Kevin asks her if Amanda was lying about what happened in Paris. When Lynn says
no, he tells her that's all he wanted to hear. He adds that if she wants him back, she should get rid of
Phillipe and admit she is in the wrong. He goes upstairs. Phillipe tells Lynn that Kevin has made a big mistake.
Later, Amanda turns up for work. She tells Phillipe he should be pleased that Kevin is out of the way, and
admits Kevin spent the night with her. Phillipe gives her some money and tells her it is severence pay - she
is fired. Amanda starts getting nasty, and tells Lynn she must know how she felt when she ruined things
between her and Rob. She adds that Lynn deserved everything she got. Lynn tells her she never stood a
chance with Rob. Amanda storms out, and Phillipe remarks that she needs a good spanking. Lynn tells him
that Amanda and Kevin both need to grow up.
Kevin arrives at the Palmer house, and tells David that he and Lynn have had a bust up. He asks if he can
stay there, and his father tells him that he can stay as long as he likes.
Amanda arrives back at Toorak. Dee isn't pleased that she has lost her job, and that she has split Lynn
and Kevin up. She invites Amanda into the living room for a chat. Amanda isn't pleased to see Wayne there
too. Dee tells them she has a proposition to put to them. She remarks that they have a lot in common - they
are both spoilt little brats. She asks them how they would like never having to worry about money ever
again. Wayne asks Dee who they have to kill. She replies no one - they are going to get married.....
