Dean is on a wild ride all the way to Mangrove River, seeking comfort in beer and easy women, but finds none, even before listening to messages about his 'desertion' from Bella, whose 'all alone' wining gets her taken in by Mac, while Ari goes looking for Dean, no luck. Angelo pulls all the stops on romantic memory lane with Taylor, even announces a long leave to concentrate on their marriage without another case. Kieran Baldivis arrives at the diner inquiring for Martha, but Marilyn won't give her address, just passes on the message. Alf goes over to lay down protective ground rules, learning he's on an ex-alcoholic amends tour, then they and Roo meet awkwardly but positively.
