Carol's baby has an adverse affect on Clare, who begins acting rather oddly; the baby also causes much excitement because no one is brave enough to look at it to see who the father is.

Bob begins to open up to his class and share some of his best kept secrets (much to their disgust), and Kurt carries on worrying if it is possible for him to be the father of Carol's baby (despite the minor issue that they didn't have sex!).

Meanwhile Lindsay is struggling with mixed messages from Clare and has to avoid alcohol for a week or so.
