Following their night together, Adam deliberately keeps away from Alice, finding it difficult to confront the consequences of their encounter. Meanwhile, May's over‑confidence leads her to discover a fall‑guy in Yuki, and Dixie is shocked as the wedding plans with Jeff move forward.

The episode titled “Just Like a Woman” forms part of a programme series, presented as a standalone instalment. It follows a handful of intertwined storylines centred on a small group of characters, each dealing with personal complications that arise over the course of the episode. One thread follows Adam, who, after spending the night with Alice, begins to keep his distance from her. His avoidance creates tension, highlighting the uneasy aftermath of their encounter. Meanwhile, May’s confidence leads her into trouble when she discovers a potential love interest, Yuki, only to be caught off‑guard by her own over‑confidence. The situation with May underscores how her self‑assurance can backfire, as she misreads Yuki’s intentions and finds herself in an unexpected predicament. This development adds a layer of irony to her storyline, showing that confidence does not always translate into success. The episode uses this to illustrate the fragile nature of personal expectations. At the same time, Dixie is preparing for her wedding to Jeff, but the lead‑up to the ceremony brings an unforeseen shock. The surprise she encounters disrupts her plans and forces her to confront an unexpected reality just as she stands on the brink of marriage. The episode concludes with these tensions unresolved.
