He built a fence for Lawrence, an antique dealer. Lawrence refuses to pay for the job, only for the materials, because Van didn't do it right - the fence isn't straight. Van insists on payment, even takes his case with Jethro. But his twin tells him the law can't rule in his favor. So Van gets Falani to rob Lawrence's house and hen to split the profits. While the robbery goes on, Van and Munter are at the pub to build an alibi. Falani comes with only 50 bucks and crushes Van and Munter's expectations for 'a sack full of cash'. Meanwhile Grandpa doesn't know what to do with his new flame Bev, who turned out to be a former cop. Judd advises him to be honest. So finally Grandpa shares with Bev his past. Surprisingly Bev was aware all along who Ted West is. She invites him on a trip to Paris after her divorce is official. Grandpa would love to go but things at home keep him far too occupied - Loretta is expecting, Judd and Cheryl have grown apart and that bloody Gary Savage is everywhere. Loretta gets the services of a social worker, named Fran, who has agreed to help her in finding a family to adopt the baby after Loretta gives birth. To make her story more sympathetic and to speed up the process, Loretta told her sad life story of abuse and rape. Cheryl, however is so excited about the child. She wants Loretta to keep it and she even moved Van out of his room to the basement, so the room would be a nursery. Stubborn Loretta hates it when people contradict her. She insists the baby would be adopted after come into the world. Shockingly, at her gynecology appointment, she gets to see the fetus for the first time and feelings, unknown to her emerge.
