Plot summary
Ted (Jason Sudeikis) starts therapy sessions with Sharon (Sarah Niles), although his reluctance to open up makes it difficult, and his disrespect for psychiatry disappoints her. Meanwhile, Roy (Brett Goldstein) begins to spend all his free time with Keeley (Juno Temple), who is becoming uncomfortable with his constant presence.
Nate (Nick Mohammed) is delighted with the media's praise for his role in the team's victory. However, he is disappointed when his father downplays his role, once again making him feel insecure. This prompts him to act rudely to some of the crew, particularly Colin (Billy Harris), a player who previously mocked him, and Will (Charlie Hiscock), the new kit man. The latter is witnessed by Beard (Brendan Hunt), who becomes concerned about Nate.
Having been advised by Rebecca (Hannah Waddingham), Ted and Higgins (Jeremy Swift), Keeley tries to discourage Roy from spending every minute with her. However, when Roy reads and comments on The Da Vinci Code while she's trying to watch Sex and the City, Keeley finally tells him that she needs some space, revealing she talked with others about him. An angered Roy storms out, and Keeley dissolves into tears.
During another therapy session, Ted apologizes for mocking Sharon's profession, intending to open up more. After Beard calls out Nate for his behavior, Nate apologizes before the team for his comments to Colin and is forgiven by the club. Ted is unaware of what he did. While leading a training session, Roy admonishes Jamie (Phil Dunster) for not supporting a teammate by staying close to him, but Jamie says he needed to give his teammate space. Roy interprets that as applying to him and Keeley. That night, Roy tells Keeley that he understands her frustration and runs her a candlelit rose bath to enjoy all by herself.
Also that night, Ted encounters Trent Crimm (James Lance) at the pub, who asks for a statement on his exit from the game. Ted continues claiming it was food poisoning. In his office, Nate happily scrolls through tweets that praise him. He then runs into a tweet that calls him a loser despite winning. Hurt, Nate once again is cruel to Will, throwing down the special "Wonder Kid" jersey Will inspired the team to give him.
