Dani looks through the photo album

Dani is looking at her photo album, when Garry comes in:  “If you’re going to ask me to make you a boiled egg, don’t!   

"You can't admit you're wrong!"

We’ve got important things to discuss, and you can’t admit you’re wrong.   Some things are difficult for me to forgive, and what you did is top of the list.”

Britt brings some food for Iolo

Britt takes round some macaroni cheese to Iolo, as he has not been looking after himself, but he tells her, “I can cook;  there’s no need to treat me like a patient.”   

Iolo tries to convince Britt that things are improving

When she asks what happened on Monday, he replies that it was nothing, but Britt says that Angela is a trained nurse and knows what’s what.   He assures her that everything is getting back to normal, slowly – that is what the doctor says.

When Meic gets to the café, Debbie tells him that she has given Gwen the day off as she worked so hard yesterday;  she was not sure that he would come back after his day’s fishing.   

Debbie's experimental cookies

Then they are suddenly aware that there is a smell of burning, but fortunately Debbie’s experimental cookies have turned out quite well, despite her using cherries instead of the intended cranberries.  

Delicious – just the sort of thing the café needs

They try one of the “Cwmderi Cherry Cookies”, and find it delicious, so decide to sell them to their customers.

Geraint from the garage has just bought a "Cwmderi Cherry Cookie"

The customers love them;  Meic proudly says they have one with their cuppa and then come back for another.   

Anita sees Meic feeding a cookie to Debbie

Debbie has to make another batch in the kitchen, but as Meic is feeding one of them to Debbie, Anita walks in and is not amused.

"You have to be cruel to be kind, and finish with her"

She orders Meic that he must stop this relationship with Debbie, but he says he will make up his own mind what to do and when to do it.   

Dani tells her troubles to Sheryl

In the salon, Dani confesses to Sheryl that she and Garry are arguing all the time, and Sheryl, with her personal experience of Garry, tells Dani to stand up to him and not to back down.

Dani asks Britt's advice

Dani then goes to the chippy for a second opinion, and Britt advises that Brandon used to be exactly the same with the “silent treatment”.   

"What's more important?" asks Britt

She asks, “What’s more important – your pride, or the wedding arrangements?   I apologise to Siôn all the time.  That’s what life is like, and what marriage is like – compromise.   You’ll never win every time with Garry;  that’s something you should learn quickly.”

"You rent is a month behind!"

Iolo has ventured outside by his van, when Garry sees him;  “You owe a month’s rent,” he says, “The last Direct Debit didn’t go through.”   Iolo tries to make excuses and vague promises, but Garry is having none of it, and marches Iolo to the cash machine.   

Britt intervenes in the argument

Britt sees what is going on and intervenes;  she tells Garry he will get his money.   “Oi!   Leave it for now,” she shouts, then tells Iolo that she knows he has not been working lately, and he took an age to do a simple job at Y Felin.

“Have you been keeping your appointments at the clinic?” she asks, “We must sort out your financial situation – I’ll talk to your Dad about the rent.   

"You're in no position to refuse our help!"

I can’t help your business behind his back.   He’s your father, and you’re in no position to refuse our help.”

Dani arrives at the garage to "eat humble pie"

Dani walks into the garage, and begins, “I don’t want to take up your time, but I want to say two words – I’m sorry!”   The matter is not just between them, but Gwern is in the middle.   She appreciates that Garry was concerned for him and wanted her to realise just how serious things were.   “I was wrong, and I’m sorry!”

Garry begins to smile

Garry smiles and replies, “Have you got that list,” and, after looking at it, continues, “There is a lot to do – you don’t really want Karaoke, do you?   We’ll discuss this over a drink.”

Meic calls Debbie, "The sorceress of the kitchen" . . .

Anita is still drinking her coffee as Debbie tells Meic she has run out of cherries and patience;  

. . . much to the distaste of Anita

Meic calls her “the sorceress of the kitchen” and Anita looks disgusted.   When she leaves, she tells Meic that his favourite, Pasta and Chicken, is for dinner tonight.

In the Deri, Dani is dreaming of being delivered to the chapel in a coach drawn by white horses, and Garry says he can get a white limousine instead.   

Sheryl joins the happy couple

Sheryl joins them, and, while Garry gets her a glass of wine, is surprised to hear that Dani apologised to him.   “Will Garry always get his own way?” she asks, but Dani says she knows Garry better than anyone, and she will decide the best way to deal with things.

Upstairs at the café, Meic calls Debbie an entrepreneur, and remembers the old days when Edgar Sutton, Agnes Spotelli and Sandra worked in the café.

Debbie mentions that there is a Swedish vampire film on the television, “Let the Right One in”, and asks if Meic wants to watch it with her and a bottle of wine.   

Meic is quite amenable to spending the evening with Debbie

“I can’t think of a better way to spend an evening,” he replies.

Poor lonely Anita, with only her pasta for company

Meanwhile, Anita sits alone, glances longingly at the front door, then begins to eat her pasta and chicken.
