A five year old soccer grand final manages to bring all our House Husbands into conflict. Kane doesn’t appreciate Lewis muscling in on his job as coach and Mark doesn’t appreciate Lewis’ not so subtle hints that Poppy belongs on the sidelines peeling oranges. Lewis is not happy to discover Justin is bailing out on the final training session, especially when the reason is that Justin has a date with his daughter Lucy. Lucy is mortified when at the beginning of the date, baby Angie is left in her care and she mistakenly believes Angie has swallowed an L charm from her key ring. This brings Nicola and Justin into conflict. When Nicola discovers that this is not the case and that Rodney has been hiding the charm to assist in their custody fight, Nicola is infuriated – she doesn’t want to stoop to that level. Meanwhile Lewis takes surprising action to foil Lucy and Justin’s relationship. Even though Lewis believes Justin’s not suitable for Lucy, he finally comes around to accepting their relationship. All this is brought into perspective when a tumor is discovered on Stella’s lower back, Tom turns to water and Kane proves himself to be the stronger of the two. Wanting to prop up Kane, but not knowing how, Lewis enlists Justin’s help to fix Kane’s roof. Ultimately, at the soccer match, Lewis drops his guard to offer true emotional support. Will Stella make it through the surgery?
