Joel's making a run for it, over the sea and far away from Dublin. Anything to get away from the responsibility his wife has just confronted him with. Ellen has rung to tell him she's pregnant. Which is a shock, considering Joel's so anti-parenthood, he always wears two condoms to be on the safe side. While Joel's flitting to Holyhead, Ellen is nursing a little secret. She lied. And it isn't long before Joel is forced to return while Ellen is forced to get pregnant and fast, no matter what it takes . . .
