Alice is defensive when Jakob tells her Kate thought something terrible had happened when she didn\u2019t answer her phone after calling in sick. Jakob\u2019s suspicions grow when he notices Alice\u2019s phone is under the coffee table, where its ringing should have woken her \u2013 then, as he\u2019s about to leave, he notices a poorly-hidden empty wine bottle. Alice tries to talk her way out of it but he says he\u2019ll have to tell Kate. Alice promises it\u2019s a one-off and says she\u2019ll call her sponsor, Lisa, if he\u2019ll keep her secret. She says she can\u2019t risk Martha being taken away from her. Reluctantly, Jakob agrees.
