Emma's in for a treat. Meanwhile Helen and Tom are plotting.
Emma's woken up on Mother's Day, with a card and present from George and Keira. Ed's planned a special day out at the park, where they chat about the on-going problem of child-care. Emma asks Ed what he thinks about her packing in her job at Lower Loxley. Ed knows she enjoys her job, so suggests she sleeps on it. If she feels the same in the morning, she should go for it.
Helen gets the call from Kylie she's been waiting for, and it's good news. Sharon has said she'll meet up with Helen. Helen hopes she'll agree to let Rich know about Tony and Pat. Kylie tells her not to expect too much.
Helen's excited though, and tells Tom that Sharon must have softened a bit towards them. She needs Tom's help to come up with a ruse to keep their parents off the scent whilst she's in Leeds. They work to devise a plan. Tom reminds her of a cheese buyer on the way. She could visit them at the same time, which would make her day out legitimate. Helen crosses her fingers that he can sort it out.
