Martin and Sarah go to fetch a takeaway. Gail stops at home to boil some rice to go with it. When Martin and Sarah get back they can smell burning rice. They can't find Gail. They go upstairs to find Gail sitting in front of Sarah's computer in floods of tears. She's been reading Sarah's emails and realises that her daughter is a complete stranger to her.
