Ben has a baptism of fire, and Kate needs a sounding board.
Before Kate and Alan discuss details for Jennifer’s funeral, Alan clears the air over the friction between him and some of Jennifer’s family over Peggy’s desire to redesign a church window. Kate’s happy to move on. It seems so trivial in light of her mum’s death. Kate rehearses the tribute to Jennifer in front of Alan but she can’t get through it without getting upset. Alan tells Kate to take it easy when she berates herself for not being able to hold it together. When she mentions she’s looking to shut down Spiritual Â鶹ԼÅÄ, Alan advises against making such a big decision so soon after a bereavement. But Kate feels the universe is telling her that this is the end for Spiritual Â鶹ԼÅÄ.
Lee bumps into Ben at The Laurels as he’s about to start his first solo shift, and is impressed by Ben’s positivity. But everything takes longer than expected as Ben attends to residents. One is particularly cantankerous for being left in bed for so long. Ben tries to persuade the man to take up Lee’s seated exercise class but he’s not interested. Later Ben bumps into Lee setting up his new class and tells him that his first proper morning’s work at The Laurels has been really tough and full-on. Lee says he’d noticed that Mr Padry had been giving Ben a hard time, but advises that his bark is worse than his bite. Lee assures Ben that while the work will get easier, it will always be very busy.
