| Sioned makes herself a sandwich |
Sioned is making a sandwich in the kitchen at Penrhewl, when DJ comes in; “So this is where you’re hiding – I’ve been sorting out that shed for half an hour,” he moans. She had realised that it was nearly lunchtime, and he presumes that she has made them both some food, but she disappoints him.
 |
| "I'm not a maid to anyone" |
“I’m not a maid to anyone,” she tells him, and then her mother rushes in, explaining that she has touched a parcel without her gloves. “Not this again!” groans Sioned,
 |
| "That virus can live for 24 hours!" |
as Eileen goes on about the virus living on cardboard for 24 hours. “Just wash your hands then,” says Sioned.
 |
| "I forgot my gloves when I saw the postman" |
 |
| "We can't live like this, Mam!" |
“We can’t live like this,” Sioned insists, and DJ says they cannot let it control their lives;
 |
| "You should stay busy and use technology" |
he advises that Eileen should stay busy and use technology, like Facebook.
 |
| Rhys is chatting up Sioned |
At Llwyncelyn, Rhys is on a FaceTime call with Sioned, and tells her that he can work around her schedule;
 |
| "You're the fittest client I've got" |
“Desperate for clients, are you?” she asks, and he describes her as the fittest client that he has. “Good – your job is to make sure I stay that way,” she replies,
 |
| Hywel is amused by this |
and Hywel, who is listening to this, grimaces, as Rhys advises that he has a few ideas for her, which she thinks sound like fun.
 |
| "Do you talk to all your clients like that?" |
“Do you talk to all your clients like that?” wonders his father,
 |
| "I doubt it would work on someone like Dai" |
and Rhys doubts that it would work on someone like Dai. “I’d say it works on Sioned,” is Hywel’s comment.
 |
| "This semi-successful businessman . . ." |
“This semi-successful businessman once told me that you have to say what your customers want to hear,” Rhys continues, and his father subjects to his use of the ‘semi’. “If I want this business to work online I need to use every drop of charm I have.” Hywel concludes that he is more like his father than he thinks, and Rhys laughs, “It’s a shame you’re past it now! I hope your business doesn’t rely on your charm, or we’ll all be out on the street.”
Then his mobile sounds, and this time it is Luned; as he goes elsewhere to speak to her, out of his father's hearing, Hywel is surprised that she is a customer as well.
 |
| "I don't get paid for the things we do!" |
“No, no – I don’t get paid for the things we do!” Rhys informs him, “Covid-19 can’t spoil everything!”
 |
| "Mam, I'm going to be so fat" |
Next morning, Sioned comes into the farmhouse kitchen, looking for her trainers, and finds that her mother has been busy baking. “Mam, I’m going to be so fat by the end of this,” Sioned says, as she picks up one of the cakes, but is told they are not for her – Eileen has made them for the key workers, to say thank you.
 |
| "It's a trial run for the lesson" |
She goes on, “I’m going to give them to the binmen, the postman, farmers – they’re a trial run for the lesson I’m giving online today.
 |
| "I'm a bit nervous because it's live" |
“I’m a bit nervous because it’s live – is this top all right?”
 |
| "How do you know what to do?" |
Sioned is surprise that her mother knows what to do, but is informed, “I don’t – DJ organised it,”
 |
| "I'll make your breakfast, DJ" |
and when he walks in, Eileen tells him she will make his breakfast.
“I want 20% of the profit when you go viral,” he tells her, and Eileen explains that he taught her all about hashtags, emojis, everything.
Sioned sarcastically describes him as a real hero, and he concedes, “People have said that about me – that I’m like Superman, especially in my lycra!”
 |
| "Are you sure they didn't say 'SuperTed'?" |
“Are you sure they didn’t say SuperTed?” scoffs Sioned, and her mother does not know what she would do without DJ.
 |
| "It's ten – time for my Facebook!" |
Then she suddenly realises that it is ten o’clock, and time for her Facebook, so she evicts Sioned from the sofa.
 |
| "There are twelve here already" |
When she looks at the laptop, she realises that she has twelve people taking part already.
 |
| Sioned and DJ look at each other |
As she begins to speak, Sioned and DJ look at each other and smile. “Today I’m going to teach you how to cook a Victoria sponge,” says Eileen.
 |
| Someone else has been cooking |
Some time later someone else is also doing some cooking; Mathew has already made some small cakes, which are a great improvement over his previous attempt.
 |
| Mathew packs them into a box |
He puts them in a box and leaves the flat.
In the street, Sioned and DJ have arrived in the 4x4, and are arguing as Mathew approaches; 
Sioned and DJ are bickering
 |
| "You two are like a married couple" |
he does not want to get involved, remarking, “This is between husband and wife!” Sioned looks askance at him and he explains, “You two are like a married couple.”
 |
| "She's been on my case all week" |
DJ agrees, saying that she has been on his case all week.
 |
| "The lesson by the latest Internet sensation" |
Apparently Mathew was following the lesson given by the latest Internet sensation, Eileen, and Sioned says she cannot now get her mother off the laptop. She asks where he is taking the cakes, and is told to mind her own business.
 |
| "Math, Tesni lives the other way" |
As he walks along the street, Sioned reminds him that Tesni lives in the opposite direction, and he replies that he knows that.
 |
| "You could bring the world into your home" |
Eileen’s newly-found fame means that she is now giving advice over the phone; “Don’t see the house as a prison – you could bring the world into your home now, thanks to the Internet.
 |
| Eileen promotes her Facebook page |
“Thank you, and if CwmFM listeners want more tips, they’re all on my page.”
DJ says that she is turning into a bit of a celeb, and she muses that she would like the life of a celeb; “A meal in Tapas and a large jug of sangria would be perfect now.”
 |
| "A bag of chips on the sofa at Bryntirion" |
DJ is adamant that he misses a lot of things, but Dylan’s little plates are not one of them; he would prefer a bag of chips on the sofa at Bryntirion and to listen to Dai and Diane arguing.
 |
| "We do appreciate you staying here" |
“You do realise that we appreciate you staying here, don’t you?” Eileen assures him, and Sioned comes in with her exercise mat.
 |
| "James my hairdresser – and the cinema" |
DJ asked her what she misses, and she says, “James, my hairdresser, and the cinema – I just want a big box of popcorn, nachos with the cheese that smells of feet – and jelly babies and white mice.”
 |
| "That's disgusting, Sioned" |
He regards that as disgusting, so she tells him, “It’s a good job I don’t have to share them with you, then!”
 |
| "Time for my personal training session" |
She wants them out of the way so she can have her personal training session, but Eileen protests that she has got choir practice. “I’ve paid for this session!” Sioned informs her, “And in any case, you can’t sing.”
 |
| "I'm not moving, Sioned!" |
Eileen makes it clear that Huwi enjoys her singing and refuses to move.
 |
| "You're so selfish!" |
In a temper, Sioned picks up her mat and water bottle, storming out of the house and snarling, “You’re so selfish!”
 |
| She is to do some open-air training |
Apparently, the replacement location is on the pavement by the alley, where green lines have been placed 2m apart, and Rhys advises her to stay by the salon.
 |
| Their initial exercise is interrupted |
“Star jumps, come on – ready?” he orders, and as they both exercise, Dylan comes out of the café opposite.
 |
| "Go home like good little kids" |
“This is a pandemic, not an opportunity to compare six packs,” he remarks, “Go home like good little kids.”
 |
| "I think PC Plod will try to stop us" |
Sioned stops, but not because of what Dylan said; “I think PC Plod will try to stop us,” she says; Rhys imagines he would be turned on by the sight of Sioned sweating.
He points out to PCSO Ashurst that they are more than two metres apart,
 |
| "You are causing an obstruction" |
but is warned they are causing an obstruction; “You are, and people won’t know where to look. Right, home now! I’ll give you a lift, Sioned.”
 |
| "I'll think of something, Rhys" |
She is determined not to give up and will think of something.
 |
| He sees a card on the ground |
Rhys picks up his stuff from the ground and notices a card lying there;
 |
| Lisa, alias Melissa, is back in town |
we see, reflected in the café window, face which resembles Lisa Morgan (otherwise known as Melissa).
 |
| The card bears a telephone number |
at Llwyncelyn, Rhys looks at the black card, bearing the name ‘Melissa’ and the imprint of a pair of lips, but puts it in his pocket when his father enters the room.
 |
| "She's watching 'Frozen 2' yet again!" |
He reports that Esther is upstairs, watching ‘Frozen 2’ yet again. “So that you can flirt with more customers, is it?” Hywel enquires, but Rhys says that it is so he does not have to watch Elsa walk across the ocean for the hundredth time this week.
 |
| "How are things between you and Luned?" |
Hywel asks, “How are things between you and Luned?” and is told that they are having fun. “Well, you seem suited to each other,” his father goes on, “I’ve spoken to her a few times.”
 |
| "I'm not going back to Ffion – it's over" |
Rhys knows what his father is doing, and stresses, “I’m not going back to Ffion – it’s over, Luned or not.
 |
| "A parcel arrived for you" |
“Hey, a parcel arrived for you – I think it’s flowers.” Apparently, it is a surprise for Gaynor,
 |
| "What have you done, then?" |
and Rhys wonders what his father has done.
 |
| "It's a good idea to buy presents for women sometimes" |
“I haven’t done anything, but it’s a good idea to buy presents for women sometimes,” Hywel recommends; Rhys considers himself lucky, not having to buy anything.
Rhys suggests, “I could give you a weights session – I give discounts to people over 50 – it’s cheaper than buying flowers.” He picks up his bag and leaves the house,
 |
| He thinks Gaynor will be impressed |
while Hywel looks admiringly at the flowers.
 |
| Mathew find the empty box on his doorstep |
Mathew returns to the door of the flat to find the empty box with a note inside; Sioned approaches, remarking, “Another box of cakes?
 |
| "Something tells me the presents aren't for Tesni" |
“Something tells me those presents aren’t for Tesni.”
 |
| "They're just from a friend" |
He replies that they are just from a friend and that is all; she is glad to see him smiling again,
 |
| "Some friends are better than others" |
as she has been worried about him on his own. “Some friends are better than others,” she goes on.
 |
| "You and DJ seemed pretty close" |
He reminds her about DJ; “You two seemed very close the other day,” and she confirms that they are indeed very close.
“He’s the best friend I could have during this lockdown –
 |
| "He even put fake tan on my back last night" |
“he even put fake tan on my back last night,” she says, causing Mathew to query whether this is ‘best friend’ or ‘boyfriend’.
Thinking about this, she agrees, “He is perfect – he’s funny – so kind – he helps with everything.
 |
| "It's a shame he's not my type, isn't it?" |
“It’s a shame he’s not my type, isn’t it?” She turns and walks away, heading to the store at the back of APD where Rhys is waiting for her.
 |
| Sioned has purloined DJ's keys |
“Oh, if you’re willing to steal DJ’s keys just to have me to yourself, I’d say you love our sessions,” he comments as she unlocks the door. She answers that she loves her abs, and if this is what she has to do to keep them, she will. “So you’re not going to enjoy having a bit more privacy then?” he asks.
 |
| "If we need to break some rules, I'm sure we can" |
“If we need to break some rules, I’m sure we can,” she tells him, and proposes to have a warmup first; Rhys appears to relish the prospect.
 |
| DJ is in pensive mood |
At Penrhewl, DJ is looking very sorry for himself, and asks Eileen, “Do you think I should join one of those dating sites? I just saw this advert – it says if you start talking to someone online you can get to know each other better before meeting.
 |
| "I do find first dates difficult" |
“I do find first dates difficult. I went on a blind date once – she left after seeing me. I didn’t even get a chance to say hello.
 |
| "And what happened with Cadno . . . and Non" |
 |
| "You haven't found the right one yet" |
Eileen tries to console him that he has not found the right one yet, and when he does, she will be the luckiest woman in the world; “And I’ll be here to make sure she knows that.”
 |
| "Why do you want to join a dating website?" |
When Sioned comes into the room, her mother asks if she thinks DJ should join a dating website.
 |
| "My talents would go to waste" |
DJ jokes that he is the perfect man now that he knows how to apply fake tan; “My talents would go to waste if I was single for ever.” He thinks that he might as well take a profile picture now,
 |
| There is obviously something there . . . |
and after a lingering look at Sioned, goes to change his shirt.
 |
| . . . and it has been noticed by Eileen |
Eileen looks knowingly at her daughter.
 |
| Luned fastens her blouse |
“I didn’t know you could get to know someone so well on Zoom,” says Luned, as she does up her blouse; at the other end of this call, Rhys maintains that it is better than a quiz or bingo. “Mind you, it would be nice to be in the same room,” she adds,
 |
| They are disturbed by Hywel |
then the door opens and Hywel comes in.
 |
| "Hiya, Luned!" |
He waves to Luned and Rhys is eager to bring the session to a close; “You’re having another chat tonight? It must be serious,” realises Hywel,
 |
| "We don't really talk" |
but Rhys replies that they do not really talk, which his father finds surprising.
 |
| This was obviously a few weeks ago |
With a poster, reading ‘Thanks NHS Wales’, in the background some of the villagers are standing in the street,
 |
| The villagers applaud the NHS |
clapping and banging kitchen utensils, so it must be 8:00pm on a Thursday.
 |
| DJ looks somewhat apprehensive |
Later, DJ has something prepared for Sioned and summons her into the room at Penrhewl;
 |
| Sioned is, initially, speechless |
when she sees what he has done she is speechless.
 |
| There is plenty of popcorn |
He has created a replacement cinema for her, complete with bowls of popcorn on the table. “It’s hard not to remember your favourites, with your terrible tastes,” he comments.
 |
| "You think of everything, DJ" |
She smiles at him, “You think of everything,” and he just wants to thank her for taking the photos for the dating website.
 |
| "I thought I looked quite dishy" |
“I don’t know how you did it, but I thought I looked quite dishy,” he confesses.
 |
| Sioned does not take much seducing |
As she begins unbuttoning her top, he wonders what she is doing, afraid that Eileen will interrupt, but is reassured that she is asleep upstairs.
 |
| Much later, she is very worried |
The next thing we see seems to continue from the end of the previous episode and shows the other end of the cryptic phone call to DJ; Sioned anxiously says, “Come over to the house – I’ve got it, and I want to do it now.”
 |
| "Don't tell me you want me to apply fake tan again?" |
When DJ, in his uniform, asks, “Don’t say you want me to apply your fake tan again?”
 |
| Sioned is extremely anxious |
She is at the table and is very much on edge. DJ sits down opposite her and asks if she is all right.
 |
| "There's a minute to go" |
She replies that there is a minute to go, as she looks down at something on the table.
 |
| So it has been more than once |
He still cannot believe it; “We were so careful – especially the first time.”
“You mean when you seduced me with the fairy lights and pick-and-mix?” she says, angrily, then apologises, “Sorry!”
 |
| "We can't have a baby" |
She looks extremely concerned, but DJ assures her everything will be all right. She cannot believe that he is serious; “We can’t have a baby,”
 |
| "I'll look after you, Sioned" |
but he promises to look after her, and she knows that he would do so.
 |
| She looks down for the verdict |
Now it has been over a minute, so with anguish on her face she looks down at the pregnancy test,
 |
| "I'm not pregnant – thank goodness for that!" |
and whispers with relief, “I’m not pregnant – thank goodness for that!
 |
| "Everything can get back to normal now" |
“Well, there we are – everything can go back to normal now.” As she runs from the room, DJ is wearing a look of disappointment.
