Offspring The Return: Round Two is upon us and once again we are hit straight out of the gate with a Nina and Leo upheaval of epic emotional proportions.
Strap in, Offspring fans. This is going to be a bumpy one.
Within minutes of the episode starting, Nina learns that Leo is leaving St Francis. But she doesn’t hear about the huge life shuffle from him.
Apparently, everyone in the entire hospital knew of his impending departure, except for Nina. His supposedly trusted confidant, friend and former lover.
To me, this says more about the shoddy internal communication system of St Francis then it does about the actual characters in play here. Like maybe it’s the kind of hospital where you go in to get your stitches removed and come out sans liver and spleen. Not exactly inspiring a lot of confidence in their medical prowess.
Zara catches up with Nina in the hallway of the hospital, desperately seeking out some Ninaesque advice. The lady is deep into her medical studies at the moment, and probably needs help with her upcoming exams. Nina is about to be a fountain of superior knowledge and expertise.
Go ahead, Nina. This is your time to shine.
Except, it’s not. Zara has no interest in medical advice.
Instead, she wants to know how Nina has figured out how to stop fellow medico Angus from flirting with her. Zara puts on her serious face as she points out that he happily flirts with everyone in the hospital, EXCEPT Nina.
Zara hit’s that whole ‘everyone, but not you’ line one too many times and it’s just enough to make Nina’s eye twitch. But, in typical Zara fashion, she knows not what she does.

I think the telling moment was when Will offered to bail out Jimmy and he refused and Will said that he had made a mistake and would pay. I'm sure we are about to see Will take them on for a fifth of the estate.
The "Oh, you're THAT guy" was the funniest line in the episode.
