Heading Out

Sara is about to turn 40, and life is not as she imagined it would be. Much to her dismay, it seems her friends are arranging a 'surprise' birthday party, but what she doesn't know is that they're about to set her a dramatic ultimatum.

Sara embarks on her life coaching journey with the eccentric Toria, but a hypnosis session has some unfortunate consequences for Justine. Daniel is feeling undervalued at work, and a disagreement with Sara turns into a vendetta on the paintball battlefield. And Sara's offer to help a distressed woman in a custody battle for her dog leads Sara into an unlikely meeting with a Dutch action hero.

Sara's ex-girlfriend Sabine turns up out of the blue, throwing Sara's already complex life even further into disarray. Eve seems keen to take her relationship with Sara further, but Sabine's intervention throws a confusing spanner in the works. Meanwhile, Jamie is having something of a masculinity crisis - a situation which Daniel kindly offers to rectify with his own unique brand of machismo.

A veterinary inspector makes a surprise call at the surgery, forcing Sara to get help from a highly unlikely source. A Russian woman gives Sara an ultimatum to arouse her dog. And Daniel spends some quality time with the ladies.

Sara and the gang go to Toria's spooky family home for a practice exercise in which Sara must come out to Toria's own parents. Toria is forced to face up to her own fears, and Jamie and Justine share an intimate moment.

The time has finally arrived for Sara to come out to her parents. Toria gives her a lucky charm for good fortune, but it seems Sara's luck may be running out entirely when there's a break-in at the surgery, leaving a snake on the loose. Will Sara be able to overcome all the hurdles and have the courage to be honest with her family about who she is?
