Adam’s outraged to learn about Will and Emma covering for George. He’s glad they were arrested, but can’t trust himself to be around Will, so Pat will have to work something out at Bridge Farm. Susan warns Will that Adam’s not happy and doesn’t want to work with either of them. But Susan’s glad Will’s told Poppy and Keira everything. Susan suggests a family day at the Flower and Produce show, but Will can’t face it. And when he starts worrying about how George would cope in prison, Susan does her best to reassure him. There’s a staffing crisis at Bridge Farm, with Tom concerned by Emma calling in sick again at the Tearoom. Having seen Emma out working yesterday he wonders just how ill she can be. And now Clarrie’s been called away as well, to look after her sister Rosie in Great Yarmouth. Pat’s grateful to Susan for stepping up and cuts through the small talk to try and see how Susan’s really doing. Pat’s heard about Emma and Will via Lilian. Susan is apologetic, but just wants to focus on work to distract her from thinking about George and how everything has gone so badly wrong. Tom goes to see Emma and talks about Fallon. Emma says she can’t face Fallon, plus there’s the stress of worrying about George and what will happen to the kids if she gets sent to prison. Tom understands her concern, then encourages her to meet up with him and Fallon – he has an idea. If Fallon’s willing to meet, says Emma, then so is she.
