In the cold light of day, Kathy begins to realise the serious consequences of bringing her niece back to Britain without her mother's permission. Kathy seeks advice from a solicitor. She admits that she suspected that Alice was being mistreated, but her hopes are dealt a massive blow when the solicitor tells her that without proof of abuse, Kathy could face charges of child abduction. The situation becomes even more volatile when Alan tells Kathy that he has received a telephone call from Elsa and she will be arriving in the village tomorrow. Angie is consumed by guilt when Marc tells the Youth Offending Officer that his parents marriage break up has deeply affected him. Len reassures Angie that she isn't a bad parent, but his words are unable to soothe her pain. Jack is left frustrated when he is unable to get a verbal decision from the Mobile phone representative, as to whether they are going to put a mast on his farm.
