集 7
Family Pressures
Although Ashley and Elaine live together, staying overnight at Ashley's parents always means seprate bedrooms. Ashley issues his mother an ultimatum: a double room, or no more visits.
His mother, Mrs. Pearce maintains her principles in a very senaky way.
展开Cracks in the Pavement
Elaine is critical of Ashley's appearance and behaviour, so he decides to make a few changes.
展开Feeling Broody
Ashley is desparate to start a family. Not sharing his enthusiasm for babies, Elaine sures him of his madness by arranging for baby Lawrence to stay the weekend.
展开The Contract
Ashley and Elaine decide that an American-style cohabitation contract would free them from all the stupid, petty arguments that every couple has over mundane issues.
What sounds good in theory threatens to turn into a disaster.
展开The End of the Beginning
The highly conventional Ashley still wants to marry the independent Elaine. Of course, the last thing Elaine wants is to settle down... but Ashley won't take no for an answer.
