Preparing to head off on his fishing holiday, Paddy is amused to find Bear preening his beard, unaware his father is harbouring feelings for Mandy.

Soon, Bear misreads a conversation with Paddy and thinks he’s got the green light from his son to pursue her.

Later at the Salon, Bear finishes receiving his treatment and has a twinkle in his eye as he invites Mandy out for lunch.

At lunch, Mandy is stunned when a hopeful Bear moves in for a kiss. With her emotions all over the place, Mandy hurries away leaving Bear reeling and embarrassed to have got things so wrong.

Soon, Mandy opens up about her feelings for Paddy and is galvanised when Bear tells her not to leave things unsaid and to admit her feelings to the man himself.
