There is a gathering at Keeper's Cottage, and a new taker for one of Susan's tabards.
Richard Locke is throwing a housewarming party at Keepers Cottage, which he's now renting. Shula helps him set up. There, Richard meets Justin Elliot, who's staying at Grey Gables over Christmas. Richard and Shula discuss Elizabeth, who Richard's looking forward to meeting. Justin invites Lilian and Shula to join him at the New Year's Day races. Jennifer helps out in the village shop, getting her tabard on (much to Lilian's surprise).
Charlie puts Adam on the spot, asking whether they can still be friends. But Adam says there's nothing left to say.
