For the first time she and Dev share a warm moment as they bicker about each other's irritating habits. Jason offers to sort out the school bullies for David but David manages to fob him off. Keith drops a bombshell on Craig telling him that they're going to live with Aunty Margery in Bournemouth as Keith needs to rest. Craig's devastated. Maria waits with Fiz and Kirk for her date with Chris Pitcher but he doesn't show up. Sally can see Craig's upset. When he tells her he's leaving for Bournemouth she makes him promise not to tell Rosie as it will spoil her trip.
