The bond between Rory and Danny deepens. Early plans are made for the boys' future accommodation in Melbourne for when they move there for their tertiary studies. A North Melbourne terrace house is bought by Richard and Max. Danny's parents appreciate what Richard and Max have done. A new musical composition by Rory and Danny is given at the Horsham Music Club. Rory leaves Ivy's place after three years of boarding with her, and he gives Ivy a gift to acknowledge her wonderful hospitality toward him.
