Plot[]
In a flashback Jean witnesses her mother's boyfriend making sexual advances towards twelve-year-old Joanna. The radio show is put on hiatus, but Jean decides to quit anyway. She offers Joanna money to repay her debts, but accompanies the money with a detailed contract. Maeve and Otis agree to have dinner with Jean so that she can get to know Maeve. Jackson discovers that the Moordale sperm bank has no record of him. Beau accuses Viv of flirting with another student and lying to him, culminating in him grabbing her wrist tightly and refusing to let go. The students prepare for a mock exam, but Otis and O become trapped in a lift. The malfunctioning lift prevents Isaac from reaching the exam room, so he and Aimee set off the fire alarm and block the stairs, forcing the campus to have a frank discussion about accessibility. Adam is asked by an impatient deliveryman to move a tractor on the farm and accidentally flattens a fence. Jean and Joanna have a fight, and Joanna leaves angrily just as Maeve arrives. Otis mends some fences with O, while Maeve and Jean open up to each other and Maeve admits that Molloy's criticism is the main reason she has chosen to stay in Moordale. Adam expects to be dismissed from the farm, but when he isn't, he confronts Michael about his perception that Michael hates him. Jackson finds a love letter in his mother's desk from a man named Jerome, whom he suspects to be his father. Beau continues to bombard Viv with messages and Jackson comforts her. Maeve tell Otis she wants to return to America indefinitely. The two confess their love for each other and finally have sex, knowing that they cannot be together.
