James revels in all the attention. Meanwhile George is in trouble.
The atmosphere is still tense as Ed and Emma search for a new car. Ed suggests a slightly more expensive car will be safer and cheaper in the long run - he will get another job to fund their expenses. Emma wonders where Ed will find time.
Ed pores over job advertisements in the newspaper while George plays rather rambunctiously and complains about his drink. George relates all the treats and activities he gets up to with Will, until Emma snaps.
George asks Emma if he can stay with Will more often, thinking it would make her happier as she would have fewer money worries. Emma states that seeing her son less would not make her happy and attempts to soothe a worried George.
Leonie makes a surprise visit after hearing about James's car crash. She suggests that there is a silver lining to James's accident as it has brought the two of them back together. They seal their reconciliation with a kiss.
Leonie announces her plans to stay in Ambridge and look after her 'brave soldier.' Matt excuses himself and ignores Lilian's pleas for company. If he can't relax in his own home he may as well work.
