Robbie is trying to organise a party with Lenny and Huw's help. Robbie and Lenny tease Huw about his lack of love life and he boasts he has a date tonight. He doesn't pluck up the courage to ask Ruth out but she invites him to dinner and he thinks there must be a mutual attraction. Conor tells Ruth that Huw has a major crush on her but she maintains that they're just friends. When Huw turns up for dinner, he's disappointed to find Conor there as well. He manages to get Ruth on her own and she has to tell him that she doesn't feel the same way. Huw makes his excuses and ends up falling asleep in the gardens. When Huw has left, Conor admits that his feelings for Ruth run deeper than friendship and they end up kissing. Conor tells Ruth he's looking for a place for Mary to live, as she can't stay at Phil's for much longer. Ruth thinks that Conor should get a place with Mary but Conor doesn't seem very taken with the idea.
