He can't quite handle it when she goes boy-mad."[23] Marilyn helps to "smooth things over" between father and daughter, and she gains Toni's support.[23] Phil and Marilyn's relationship is tested by his doubts and the sixteen-year age gap between them. But Marilyn assures him that he is the right man for her.[23] After dating for a few weeks, Phil asks Marilyn to marry him and she accepts. Martin told Rouse that Phil would bring stability to Marilyn's life, but he thought she would feel uncomfortable living in the country.[23] He added "But if their love is strong enough, they'll make a go of it."[23] Symons told a reporter from TVTimes that Phil is a father figure to Marilyn who arrives at the time she needs it.

Phil crashes his car, after almost colliding with Marilyn and which causes Phil to remain in the area.[23] Martin told Wendy Rouse of Inside Soap that there is much friction in Toni and Phil's relationship because he was forced to bring her up solely following the death of Toni's mother.

He also stated, "Les is a very interesting character to play. And it's actually a lot of fun."[27] Les tries to form a relationship with his son, as he feels guilty and he also wants to see if Blake will be able to take over his business one day.[27] Blake and Les eventually formed "an interesting relationship", but it became strained when Blake discovered something "quirky" about his father.[27]

It soon becomes evident that Les is hiding a family secret from Blake.
