On their way back from a landscaping job, Will’s still insistent that he won’t be the witch on Eddie’s Halloween Trail. Eddie’s van almost collides with Susan and Neil on their tandem bike. Eddie and Will go out to see if they’re OK – no broken bones, only spilt shopping. Separately, Neil and Susan each express their dislike of the tandem to Eddie and Will respectively. They’re both putting on a brave face for one another. Later, Susan and Neil come clean about the tandem bike and are relieved to learn they both want to give it up.

As churchwarden, Neil feels obliged to go to the refugee discussion group at the church. Susan doesn’t feel she can, considering the Bridge Farm Archers’ feelings towards Alan. The whole saga also reminds Susan of her own time in prison 30 years ago.

At No.1 The Green, Eddie discovers that the new guinea pig, supposedly a neutered male, has given birth. George is livid and wants to hide them from Poppy, but Will won’t allow it. George wonders if living at Little Grange wasn’t so bad after all.

Neil waits with Alan in an empty church, but no one turns up for the refugee discussion group. Alan admits he considered taking Usha’s advice of walking away from Rob’s spiritual journey, but he has to take Rob’s request in good faith. After half an hour they call it a night. As they leave they discover graffiti insulting Rob on the church door. Both Neil and Alan are horrified – who would do something like this?
