Dan's home, and Pat builds bridges.

Shula is getting ready for Dan coming home for the weekend. Alistair is sorry he won't be around later but his conference has been booked for months.

Helen is picking vegetables for the meal she plans to cook for herself and Rob. It will be good to hear what each other have been doing. Pat thinks Helen is working too hard but Helen just wants to give her fiancé a lovely supper.

Shula meets Dan at the station. He is tired but looks fit. Dan tells shocked Shula that he has made a will. It's standard procedure. He's turning into a man before Shula's eyes and she insists that she's proud of him.

When Alistair arrives home, Dan has gone to bed. Alistair is sorry he wasn't around. Shula lies that it's fine.

Rob and Helen are relaxing after dinner. Helen comments that Open Farm Sunday has kept Rob busy, There must have been a lot of preparations away from the office, but Rob says not really.

Helen is perturbed until Rob produces a box with a ring inside. He bought it from an old friend in Birmingham who deals in precious stones. Helen realises that's where he was on Wednesday. Rob wants everything to be perfect for Helen and she's never been happier.
