Episode synopsis
The new-found poverty is really starting to bite in the Carter family but that’s not what’s getting Lindsay down. Nor is it the relentless boredom of working in the garden centre - Lindsay’s lonely. The reality of spending the next four years without her husband has really hit home. An old friend of the family, Owen turns up. He and his wife have just split up and he needs Lindsay to help him out with his car sales business. She’d be doing him a favour and it’s got to be better to be working in an office and being paid properly, than a life with Clive and garden centre wages. Lindsay’s more than happy to jack in her job and go and work for Owen, who happens to be extremely good-looking too. When Mack learns about this from Vin, he is furious. As for Taylor, life as the perfect Carter child is getting him down. He’s feeling guilty at work for snagging the job under false pretences and he’s permanently worried that he might get found out. He’s also feeling trapped by his relationship with Catherine. So when Vin comes to him with a crazy suggestion, Taylor actually listens.
