While doing a new batch of yoghurts, Pat and Susan discuss Helen's character witnesses. Susan tells Pat that she saw Rob and Henry playing cricket on The Green and she mentions Emma has seen Henry too. Susan comes clean that Emma is being paid to babysit Henry. Pat is angry that Rob took custody and now can't cope, but Susan sticks up for Emma. Pat realises and apologises - she's just so frustrated by the restrictions on seeing Henry.

He says from now on he is a changed man.
