Second Helpings
Stuart Collins's life might as well have ended a year ago when his partner died in a car crash. Even Stuart's widowed father has found new love with an old friend, Isabel Franklin, so why can't Stuart be bothered to try? Then he gets a phone call from Isabel's son, Paul, who wants to check out whether or not Mr. Collins is good enough for his mother. During dinner together, though, they end up checking out each other. Trouble is, Paul's got a boyfriend — or maybe he doesn't, since the boyfriend's supposedly giving Paul the push by ignoring him. Or maybe Paul just wants to have his cake and eat it too. Honesty with each other is the only way to move forward. But maybe honesty with themselves is what they really need.
