Short summary

Kate Darcy's continued physical deterioration causes Terence to ask her to visit him professionally. Unfortunately, an unwelcome diagnosis leaves Terence with the unenviable task of telling Kate that she has Huntington's disease. A young girl's visit to the clinic prompts Simon to campaign for a "personal development" programme in the schools but when he sees the graphic nature of the material he'll be expected to present, the once eager doctor looks for a way out. Molly ropes Brendan into painting the roof and presents him with an elaborate, multicoloured rising sun design. Ben gets a fantastic job offer but his lack of consideration for Marta's work in his relocation plans doesn't sit well with the Matron.
