Ideas develop for Pat, while confusion reigns for the Grundy family.

Clarrie and Emma visit George and find to their surprise that he鈥檚 very worried about Eddie. George believes they鈥檙e keeping information from him about an illness. He鈥檚 had a letter from Keira and Poppy, suggesting he speaks to the family to find out more details. With Emma and Clarrie nonplussed, George realises he鈥檚 been duped by his sisters. Clarrie thinks it鈥檚 sweet that they鈥檝e concocted this plan to get George to see her and Emma, but George thinks they shouldn鈥檛 have used his grandpa this way. However he does admit it was kind of a Grundy thing to do. Emma鈥檚 really happy to see George smile. He admits he misses them all. Emma suggests tentatively that they might visit again, and George agrees.
Susan admits to Pat that whilst she鈥檚 glad Clarrie鈥檚 got to see George, it does still hurt that that he won鈥檛 have anything to do with her 鈥� and there鈥檚 no sign of him coming back from that. Talk turns to the looming fight for their jobs. When Helen ventures that it鈥檚 nobody鈥檚 fault, Pat鈥檚 riled. She puts the blame squarely with the sewage leak incident. They need a more effective way to make their voices heard. Susan suggests a ring of the church bells, to rouse people to the cause. But Neil isn鈥檛 happy with the idea. He believes the leak could be as much down to climate change as mismanagement. Pat points out Susan could lose her job 鈥� the bells would be for her and Clarrie. Might Neil reconsider and ask Alan鈥檚 opinion, for Susan鈥檚 sake?
