The Grundys attempt to complete Joe’s legacy and dinner at The Aldridges proves a nerve-wracking experience.

Jennifer’s put on a Scandinavian spread in honour of Jakob at dinner. There’s awkwardness as Jakob commits one or two gaffes with his direct approach, and the sideshow of fractious Xander’s crying becomes impossible to ignore. They’re all drawn in to the effort to quieten him. To everyone’s amazement when Jakob holds Xander, the baby falls silent. Brian’s impressed and Jennifer’s charmed; Jakob has ticked several boxes. Kate assures him the evening was a success, and so was he. She finds him even more attractive after tonight.
Brian’s pleased to confirm with Eddie his attendance at Joe’s funeral and wake; Joe was a true Man of the Soil.
Eddie’s pursuing the hangover cure recipe. He feels like Joe would have wanted them to. He recounts to Ed the insistence of Carmen that they sign a profit share agreement before taking the recipe away. When they make up the recipe the smell is pungent as they stir in the bizarre ingredients. They need the perfect guinea pig to test it out on. Ed calls Jazzer. As they agree to keep him plied with drink, Jazzer declares himself thirsty. However the experiment backfires as Jazzer eventually falls fast asleep – they can’t give him the hangover mixture! Eddie reckons Joe’s up there laughing at the situation. Ed promises they won’t give up on the cure.
