The results are in for Kenton, and there’s a new face in Ambridge.
Emma and Tracy are trying to make themselves useful by giving the pub a spring clean while it is closed. They are hard at work when Eddie arrives asking for a favour. He wants them to tell Mia that he won’t be modelling in the show on Friday, as Mike has asked him to do some work in Birmingham and he needs the cash. Tracy and Emma refuse, knowing that Mia is going to be furious, and telling him to do his own dirty work. Before he leaves he pleads with them to find a way to get the electricians to work faster as the village isn’t the same without the pub.
Later while Tracy is cleaning Jolene’s car – and larking about in a water fight with Emma - the alarm goes off. Jolene comes out and tells her it is faulty and needs to be looked at.
Kenton and Jolene break the good news to Emma and Tracy that they’ve found a way to open the Ploughman’s – only offering bottled beers and soft drinks - to start bringing in some revenue. The reopening is a success with them enjoying a good trade - a mixture of regulars and casual customers. A rowdy group of newcomers are happy to flash the cash, flirting and giving Emma and Tracy large tips. But Jolene seems uneasy, avoiding the group and making excuses to disappear. At the end of the evening Kenton finally announces the winner of the longest drinker competition as Neville Booth.
