Pip and Stella plan a picnic. Preoccupied Stella starts to disclose what’s on her mind, but Pip’s distracted by a call from Rosie’s school – Rosie’s sworn at a child and upset her. Pip can’t believe it. Stella reckons Rosie could have picked up the word anywhere but Pip’s not convinced she said it at all. She calls Toby, who has Rosie this week. She reports Toby’s equally shocked and will talk to Rosie. Pip frets; she feels freaked out and sorry for Rosie. Stella suggests that it’s possible Rosie did do it, but Pip maintains she’s not a mean kid. Unsettled, she declares she’ll drive to Toby’s and speak to Rosie herself. The picnic will have to be another time.
Kate’s cooking Brian a belated Father’s Day meal. Talk turns to the topic of the big family holiday. Kate’s very excited at Phoebe’s baby news but someone needs to take the lead on the holiday coordination. She thinks if they get it right it could be the holiday of a lifetime. Brian doesn’t share her enthusiasm. Pinning Friday as a good meeting date Kate resolves to set up a family group chat to pool ideas. Jakob arrives and they all drink to the baby. Kate wonders what she might be known by when she becomes a grandmother. She suggests Jakob could be Mofar, a Swedish term for grandpa. Jakob doesn’t like it. Later, he tells Brian he’s not ready to be a grandfather. Brian allays his concerns with some wise words of experience. Jakob still hates the prospect of ‘Mofar.’
