Alice finds out that she is cancer-free after the operation but barely has time to get the news before she is dumped by Matt. Alice realizes that now, without income and accommodation, she has to move home from London with her tail between her legs. Once home in the suburbs among troublesome parents, old bullies who don't even remember her and her best friend Shantana who has got a girlfriend, Alice understands that she must quickly get her life in order. Get a job, an apartment and find the meaning of life.
2. Episode 2
Alice goes on her first return visit to Sweden to get another Pap smear. Is this how the rest of her life should be? Constantly worrying about relapse and nervously waiting for test results six weeks at a time? Shantana tries to get her to think positively and focus on finding a new job instead. At the job interview, she is forced to explain what her work experience actually is. Was her life in London as glamorous as she tried to make it seem?
3. Episode 3
Alice wants to show Matt that she has moved on too. But her body has changed after the disease and her mother's advice on how to deal with age-related issues doesn't make it any better. Before Alice can even think about dating again, she has to find out if her punani is working. Shantana comes to the rescue to help Alice get her act together and Mehmet proves to be able to relate to what it's like to be short. Maria joins the gynaecological cancer group and learns that gynaecological cancer is not as common as other types of cancer.

After the failed attempt at sex, Alice turns to the internet, both to find the next potential hookup and to find others who have had similar problems.

5. Episode 5
Alice is forced to introspect. Others seem to become better people after their cancer, but Alice has only become worse. Shantana tries to help but it ends in a fight and when Maria posts an ugly picture of her on the gynaecology group's account, she feels she has reached rock bottom. Bakos cannot relate to Alice's thoughts about the meaninglessness of life, but Jeans-Jonas tries to make them realize the greatness of metal. After a near-death experience, Alice realizes that something positive can perhaps come out of a disaster.
