Dean and Mairéad try to navigate what's next in Sunday's Fair City on RTÉ One and the RTÉ Player.
The friends recently spent the night together - and now comes the news that Mairéad's husband Damien will be home from hospital soon.
On Sunday, Mairéad tells Dean: "Damien needs me."
"I get that," replies Dean.
"It's complicated, though," Mairéad continues.
"What do you mean?" asks Dean.
"I'm not sure I'm ready to stop this," admits Mairéad.
Fans can watch what happens next on Sunday on RTÉ One and the RTÉ Player at 8:30pm.
Fair City airs on RTÉ One and the RTÉ Player on Sundays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays.
