Pip insists she is fine, and Tracy makes her mark.

With the future of James and Leonie's relationship in doubt, Lilian deeply regrets having fallen out with Lynda. But maybe James and Leonie would be better off apart, she wonders. Justin offers to cheer her up with dinner at Grey Gables. She mustn't worry about running into Matt.

With Anisha's help, Tracy gets to grips with the laws of cricket, although she's more interested in the changing facilities. Harrison has put up a screen between the men and women, but everyone agrees it isn't sustainable. Tracy jokes to Justin that he should sponsor a new changing room.

David and Ruth still can't believe Josh has decided he isn't going to university. The worst part is that he's been lying to them for ages, and doesn't even seem to be sorry. While Josh is away playing cricket Pip is working flat out. David and Ruth have trouble persuading her even to take a break. Ruth's disappointed when Pip turns down the offer of a meal at Brookfield - she already has plans at Lower Loxley. Ruth suggests that they are owed an easier time with Ben, but Pip points out that's not in the parenting job description. Ruth thinks it definitely should be.
