Mercedes hears the truth from Malachy

After their night of passion, Malachy is still guilt-ridden about being unable to tell Mercedes about his HIV. Meanwhile, as Kris heads back to The Dog for a shift, Malachy panics that Kris will discover he hasn't told Mercedes the truth. Mercedes arrives at The Dog and Kris is surprised at her light-hearted attitude. Suspicious at his strange questions, Mercedes asks Kris why he's acting so strangely towards her and Kris is shocked to realise Mercedes knows nothing about the HIV. Mercedes later confronts Malachy on The Dog patio, demanding to know what's going on - and she's distraught when Malachy reveals he could have infected her with HIV.
