After You've Gone

After Jimmy's van and all its contents—including his tools and his jacket with his keys in the pocket—gets stolen, Diana insists they change all the locks. This leads to a standoff between Jimmy's laissez-faire attitude and Diana's belief in the heat of battle about whose house this is, Diana reminds Jimmy that since she and her husband gave Ann the deposit on for the house, the place is partly hers.

Jimmy's financial woes are getting out of hand and he has to nick the kids' money on the sly, until he gets caught by Diana when he is in fiduciary trouble at the bank,

When Alex's teacher writes home to say that 'Alex is possibly gifted but we'll never know because he has the attention span of a gnat', Jimmy latches onto 'gifted' while Diana's focus is on 'not living up to his pontential'. Alex being under the microscope gives Molly the chance to fly under the radar and do what she wants for a while.

Jimmy loses at a pub quiz and he seeks Diana's help for the next one. Diana goes along for a fun night out. Molly stays out with a friend but returns in the early morning hours.

Ann's colleague and new partner Dr. Howard Banks visits to raise relief funds. Diana and the kids like him but Jimmy doesn't, and the disdain deepens when Howard tells Diana that he and Ann want Molly and Alex to live with them in Africa.
