The internet is down at Cyril's, although it's not the only thing that's struggling to connect this week. Making up for lost time, Phil tries to mend a few bridges with Sarah, but, still reeling from the news of Richard and Ava's engagement, his daughter isn't in the mood to receive life advice.
Ex-wife Carol, on the other hand, is showing signs of thawing, prompting Stan to further delay asking his big question. Plus, Kieran clashes with a trio of thunder-stealing clowns (the circus is in town), and newbie Jason reveals the reasons behind his stint at the allotments.
