He says that he will have an affair, but is being totally open about it. He has become tired of Fiona constantly working and never having time for him. Her husband, Jack, has said that he wants to have an affair with a colleague. She rules that, as a matter of law, Adam's welfare is the "paramount consideration" and declares that the medical treatment, including blood transfusion, may proceed despite the absence of Adam's consent and that of his parents. Fiona nevertheless leaves, and returns to court. Adam is very drawn to Fiona, and begs her not to leave. Adam starts to play " Down by the Salley Gardens", which Fiona then sings. When she asks Adam whether he is aware refusing the blood transfusion could, rather than kill him, render him disabled, Adam answers yes, and he'd hate it but accept the cost. The two talk, with Fiona attempting to determine what it is that Adam really wants, and whether he has been persuaded by his parents. However, Adam and his parents are Jehovah's Witnesses, and believe that having a blood transfusion is against biblical principles. Adam's doctors want to perform a blood transfusion, as that will allow them to use more drugs to cure him.
