Alice finds Lilian smoking - and fuming - outside The Bull as she takes a break from David’s ‘help’, while Kenton continues his recovery. As Lilian sees it David is basically an obstruction behind the bar, while she runs around changing barrels, bottling up and filling the dishwasher. Her mood doesn’t improve when she goes back inside and David asks where she’s been. It gets worse when he uses their premium prosecco to experiment on a Valentine’s Day cocktail recipe. Kenton comes in to find relations more than a little strained. The final straw comes when David persuades Harrison to try a cocktail, but while doing his Tom Cruise impression and throwing the shaker around, David elbows Lilian squarely in the eye. She gives him a full rundown of his shortcomings and orders him into the cellar to move some barrels. The row prompts Kenton to shout at both of them to shut up and sort out the situation. Later, Kenton apologises, explaining that the row made him panic – it was frightening. Sympathetic David vows that from now on he’ll help make sure The Bull runs smoothly - and quietly. Fallon tells Harrison that Alice apologised for Harry’s clumsy question about them having children, then asks why Harrison got so upset. He apologises for not handling it better and concedes that, while he agreed they wouldn’t have children, there is still part of him that would have liked to. But more than that, he wants to be with Fallon and accepts she doesn’t want them. She kisses Harrison and wishes him Happy Valentine’s Day.
