When trying to get a check-up she miserably fails doing the self-testing kit and ends up in the Sexual Health clinic, where the only person still there to see her is middle aged grumpy Dr Mark Mackenzie. While her friends wind her up more and more via text about what she might have picked up, Mark is trying to get her out of the door as quickly as possible.
