Alex is in a meeting with Raz, the accountant that Helen accidentally had dinner with on Valentines Day. Raz is supposed to be sorting out Alex's debts but he fancies himself as a bit of a life-coach. Pushing Alex into imagining his life ten years from now, Alex realises that he's imagining his life to be with Helen.

He arranges a surprise party for her birthday. Or rather control freak Sophie, Pete's sister, arranges it. Alex finds a way to keep Helen busy the night of the party while Sophie's getting the flat ready.

Dr. Two-Scenes is the nickname everyone at CMA gives to Roger Comerford, Alex's client who only ever has two scenes in every episode of Holby City. Claiming the Doctor has written a script he'd like to talk to Helen about, Alex arranges for them to have a drink on the night of her birthday.

But the evening later falls apart when Alex confides in a deranged Sophie about his feelings for Helen, her dead brother's fiancée, and Sophie punches him in the face.

And Helen is so drunk that she completely misunderstands Alex's declaration of love and goes off to have sex with Doctor Two-Scenes 'because he may be a very unsuccessful actor but he's a great salsa-dancer'.
