Pat and Tony smell a rat, and Justin finds support from an unexpected source.
Mia, Jim and Justin are enjoying hot cross buns at the Bull. Jim reminds Justin about his shift at the shop tomorrow, while Mia wants a chat. She admires Jim for taking a stand for what he believes in, but she can’t agree with him on his objection to the electric vehicle charging station plans. She’s in favour of such schemes, pointing out their importance for the future. Jim agrees in principle. He just doesn’t want them in inappropriate settings, citing the potential increase in traffic. But Mia’s determined to stop his protest. Both claim to have local support. Jim blurts out that Mia’s support comes from fat cat Justin Elliott. This is new information for Mia, and Jim backtracks, advising her to forget he said anything. Later Mia tackles Justin, who’s circumspect about his involvement. Mia assures him she’s on his side, and if he wants her help with a counter protest, she’s available.
Lee wants Helen to tell her parents about Rob. She doesn’t agree. She has all the steps to protect herself and her children in place, and she wants to keep things in proportion and not let their lives be disrupted. However Lee’s unable to fend off suspicious Pat and Tony, and tells them the news. Helen tries to reassure her worried parents, and promises she’ll keep them informed, but she doesn’t want anyone else to know. Helen’s angry with Lee for taking away her control, but soon concedes he acted for the right reasons. She can cope with this. There’s no evidence Rob’s planning anything.
