Love Me on ABC and ABC iview S1E3 – After the kiss last night, Clara meets Peter at a café for lunch. There’s good banter, sexual attraction and Clara’s classic sharp wit which can turn any awkwardness into humour, even if it’s at her own expense. But then, the bomb drops. He’s a model.
Aaron’s in Ella’s arms again, sharing toast, tea and sex. When Ella suggests they use his Dad’s house for her birthday party Aaron is taken aback. His mother just died in that house, but Ella hits him with a kiss, Aaron declares his love and gives in.
At Senior Love Romantica, Glen starts his day with a tentative wander beneath the palms, surrounded by happy couples enjoying the activities designed for two; it’s the perfect place to really crystallise his aloneness. Anita appears, she’s a charmer. Makes him promise not to be a stranger.
A few days later, Peter tracks down Clara at the hospital and presents her with top shelf lollies from the pick-and-mix. He confesses he likes her, but Clara can’t handle the honesty and skips out of the convo – back to work.
Meanwhile, the Mathieson family home pumps with twenty-somethings at play. But when Aaron tries to pull Ella aside to give her his present, she’s too busy partying. He finds some of Ella’s friends having sex in his dead mother’s bed and loses it, kicking everyone out on the spot. After putting Ella to bed, Aaron finds Jesse waiting to share a beer. In a moment of tenderness, she consoles him, easing his sorrow in a way that Ella hasn’t.
Back at the Romantica restaurant Glen and Anita finish dinner and take their conversation poolside for a late night drink and dip. After sharing a goodnight kiss, Glen sits alone in his room, where his dead wife Christine appears to him and delivers a smug assessment of the situation.
As night falls, Clara calls her Dad to check in. In an unusually unguarded moment, he says they must not give up because they’re scared of something. And with that, Clara sets off to find Peter.
