Sharon's day hasn't started well. She accidentally breaks a mug and spills coffee everywhere and then Tracey accuses her of not paying her way. Tracey is having problems with money, so she and Dorien try to sell some clothes. Meanwhile, Sharon has to go back to her job at the supermarket, but she isn't feeling welcome.

Tracey thinks she might be pregnant. However, on visiting the doctor, Sharon is horrified to discover she is pregnant by Dave, a man she has only recently met. Tracey can't stop herself telling Dave, who is delighted and immediately phones his mother with the good news. Sharon then confesses to Tracey that she has had an abortion.

Sharon bumps into Dave, her ex-boyfriend from shortly after the boys were sent down. This brings back all the feelings she had when she had the abortion with Dave's baby. But now she feels ready to settle down, and Dave could be just the right man. All she has to do is tell him that she never had a miscarriage. Meanwhile, Tracy gets all motherly when Garth comes home for the weekend.
