Jennifer plays a misguided Cupid.

Alice is home and tells Lilian how great university is, apart from being away from Chris. At her drinks party Jennifer encourages Alice to speak to Sebastian ('Bastie' Streatfield. Adam sees that Bastie has taken a shine to Alice, but she makes it clear she only has eyes for Chris.

Lilian is looking for Matt, who keeps disappearing. She finds him on his mobile and demands to know what's going on. Matt snaps at her. It's a bad time to be in property development when nobody's developing property. Later Lilian discusses it with Jennifer. There's more to Matt's moods then he's letting on.

Brian tells Tom he wants to cut costs with Tom Archer sausages but Tom thinks it will compromise the quality and could ruin the brand. When Tom relays this to Adam he understands, but insists that Tom needs to stick to his guns. If he does that he'll be fine.

Alice tells Jennifer she's leaving the party to go with Chris to The Feathers. Lilian realises that Jennifer had hoped to pair Alice off with Sebastian. She tells Jennifer she's going to have to try a lot harder then that to tear Alice away from Chris.
