There is an unexpected visitor at the village shop, and Tom wonders what might have been.

Susan leafs through the local paper, reading the reports of the stabbing at Blossom Hill. Susan tells Ursula that she wishes Rob well. She tries to gossip but Ursula stays tight-lipped. Peggy comes in and Susan lets slip to her that Helen has been charged.
Helen's family fear her stress could bring on another complicated birth, like Henry's. Helen appears, traumatised, in Borchester Magistrates Court. The prosecution submit that Helen should be remanded in custody. Helen can't even speak as she is taken down. Pat and Tony lament the lack of compassion shown for their daughter. Dominic tells them that the next stage is for Helen to find a barrister and discuss what type of defence she will have.
Tom and Kirsty reminisce sombrely. Tom worries that if they had married as planned, then maybe Helen would have had a friend to turn to. Kirsty tells him not to transfer his guilt on to this situation.
Peggy finds Ursula cleaning up Blossom Hill Cottage. They have both started praying in this difficult time. Tom is angered that Peggy's loyalties seem to be moving to Ursula and Rob. But Peggy points out that if Rob doesn't make it, Helen will face a charge of murder.
