And the lovers' final meeting in Alex's swimming pool - the standout scene of the episode - is a thing of beauty, not tragedy. Elsewhere, Franky is shocked to see Nick and Matty approaching her at Alex's party not entirely sure why, shouldn't she have known they'd be there? That is until she sees Grace, who instructs her to stop running away from her problems and sort herself out. Spurred on by Grace and left alone with Nick and Matty, Franky finally comes to a decision - she doesn't want either of them.
She says that she could only ever be a way for them to love each other and walks away into the night. Rather than go after her, Nick and Matty realise that they should have been working to fix their own broken relationship rather than fighting each other to start a new one with Franky. In a touching few minutes, they crack open a few beers as brothers and reiterate their love for each other. I don't know, it seems like a bit of a copout to have Franky choose neither of them after such a buildup, but admittedly it does feel right.
The feud between Matty and Nick has become more reminiscent of normal brotherly squabbling through the episode, so it's satisfying to have them acknowledge their bond.
As that's going on, Franky runs into Cara again, who's had some time to think about their earlier run-in. She admits that she's been lying and whisks Franky away to some form of institute, where she finally gets to meet her mother. While Franky's belief that this reunion will solve all her issues is not exactly healthy or likely, the physical transformation it spurs is immediately noticeable.
She smiles for what feels like the first time in the entire series and the scene, basked in sunlight, is similarly bright and warming. Grace always had a solution and gave Liv a smile or four. She accepted Liv for who she was and loved her no matter what. This positive energy that Liv relied on to get her through the tough times.
When Grace passed away it killed Liv more so than many of the others. Liv was essentially alone. Rich a good guy friend left for awhile and came back seemingly okay. Mini was distracted with Alo and her big secret. Franky with her own guilt.
Nick was distracted by both Matty and Nick. Alo is Alo and distracted by Mini. Matty left her. Grace died. She was alone. The person who Liv knew would love her no matter what was gone. This is what drove Liv throughout Series 6. Then lastly we have Alex. This new exciting friend that belonged to Liv. He offered her an escape from Grace and her issues with her friends by permanently sticking to his hip.. She loved Alex and Alex loved Liv. Ultimately though Alex had to leave, because he is that strange nudist who comes into town aimlessly and then leaves town just as aimless.

Liv arrives at the house and Nick reluctantly lets Matty answer the door, despite their father's rules. Soon, Matty and Liv are having noisy sex. Nick lifts weights in an attempt to ignore them but gets an erection. He calls Mini, before heading over to her house with flowers, chocolates and massage oils. He gives her a massage, but Mini is unimpressed and appears to be in pain. Eventually she complains that he is jabbing her with his erection and reluctantly rolls over so they can have sex.
However, it is extremely awkward and doesn't work out. Nick and Mini arrive at college and find Matty and Liv sitting outside. Nick claims that it is great that they are all friends, but there is clear tension. Nick spots his rugby boys and mimes throwing a ball, before Rider mimes having sex with it. Nick and the other rugby boys find it hilarious, but Mini, Liv and Matty are unimpressed. Leon arrives and the boys leave with him. Mini sits next to Liv, but Liv tells her: "Don't" and walks off.
Inside, Professor Blood is reluctant to allow Matty to re-enrol because of his record but their father points out that Nick chose Roundview College because he was promised certain privileges. Nick points out that he is winning rugby games and promises that Matty will behave himself. Blood agrees that Matty can re-enroll and Nick is thrilled.
Afterwards, Leon warns Matty that he is watching him before leaving. Matty admits that he doesn't know how Nick can deal with college and everything but Nick says everything he wants is right there. He takes Matty to meet the others, who are playing cards. Matty makes a joke that he survived on the streets by giving blowjobs and everyone laughs, but Nick quickly insists that it isn't true.
He makes another comment and Rich is scornful, making Nick uncomfortable. He gets up to leave and Matty asks if he's coming out with them tonight. Nick sees Liv's face and claims that he can't come because of his rugby game. He leaves and the group laughs as he walks away. Nick goes to meet the others but stares at Liv and Matty through the window first. During a party later that night, Nick sees Mini dancing with Rider.
He storms over there to complain, but Matty warns him to back off. Rider tells Matty to get back to his "tart" and Nick punches him. He calls after Mini but she tells him not to pretend he cares, saying that if he did he wouldn't have cheated on her with Liv. She storms off and Nick ends up going too. He arrives at the rugby pitch but his kicks aren't going well. Matty arrives and offers to play with him, but the game ends with Matty wrestling Nick to the ground.
Nick yells that everything is easy for Matty and now he's returned to mess up his life again. Matty points out that he is not the one messing up Nick's life. Later, Matty arrives and watches on before telling Nick to go after he sees the aftermath of Nick destroying their kitchen. Nick gets home and discovers that Matty has packed a bag. He rushes into the kitchen and tells his father that he is responsible for the mess.
Leon claims that Matty has got to him and Nick wouldn't have done anything if it wasn't for him. However, Nick claims that he wouldn't have done anything if it wasn't for his dad. His father says that they are ganging up on him and Nick agrees. Outside, Matty and Nick gather their father's books and his motivational posters and put them in a pile with Matty's contract.
They get some beers and their father watches from a window as Nick lights a match and sets the pile on fire. He follows it and discovers Liv, Rich, Franky and Matty, who have arrived to kidnap him. Later in the episode, Alo makes flour, water, and egg balloons out of condoms and calls Matty. Later, the group sit outside together and Matty asks if Alo is sure it's alright if Nick comes over. Alo agrees and suggests that they should call everyone. Rich warns him to think about it but Alo insists that he has.
During the party, Franky is annoyed by Mini's comments and goes over to dance with Matty and Liv. Alo arrives at a party being hosted by Nick and Matty. He says hello to Franky, but she heads upstairs. She sees a silhouette of two people kissing in the bathroom and gets closer. The door is ajar and she sees Liv and Matty having sex. Matty opens his eyes and stares at Franky, and she rushes off. Mini is painfully overacting and Grace decides to skip to a scene with Franky and Matty.
Liv is irritated as she watches Matty's genuine emotional response and ends up announcing that she and Matty have decided to leave the play. Later, Liv reluctantly agrees to rejoin the play and Grace is thrilled. Matty and Rich arrive, and Grace realizes that Rich is drunk. Matty notices Franky being hassled by one of the guys at the bar, but Liv tells him not to get involved, saying that they are having a good time.
However, Matty intervenes and the guys leave, causing Mini to yell at him. Later, Matty agrees to return to the play but admits that he hasn't spoken to Liv since the night before, adding that he doesn't think she trusts him. At rehearsals, Matty and Franky have another scene together but when Matty leans in to kiss her, she moves so that he only kisses her cheek. The next day, the performance begins and Liv and Franky have to kiss on stage.
