Tom's plans are put on hold.

Mike wakes Vicky when he leaves for work. Vicky says she'll be lonely without him.

Brenda decides to pop to Willow Cottage later for the rest of her clothes, if Tom still wants her! Tom reassures her, and he'll cook a special meal later.

Brenda's surprised to find Vicky at Willow Cottage, in Mike's dressing gown. Vicky invites Brenda to stay for coffee but Brenda can't leave quickly enough.

David visits Pat at the wetland. David says the parish council has had a letter saying the wetland will attract mosquitoes. Pat explains why this isn't possible. Tom arrives at Bridge Farm looking for ice-cream for later. Tom tells Pat he won't let Brenda go again.

Mike and Vicky are in the Bull. Vicky asks Mike if he's heard from Brenda. Vicky hopes she didn't embarrass Brenda earlier but Mike says Brenda will have to get used to her.

Brenda arrives home to candles and flowers. Tom's keen to talk to her. Mike drops off Brenda's clothes, hoping Vicky didn't surprise her. After he leaves, upset Brenda tells Tom about earlier - Vicky sitting in the kitchen like she owned it. Tom says she needs to forget about it. Brenda apologises, but Tom's moment is lost.
