Lilian and Paul celebrate National Plum Day with themed cakes and a chat. Lilian is thrilled that Alice is throwing herself into The Stables’ event, producing wonderful work on branding. To Paul’s delight, he receives a large bag of branded medals from Alice, meaning he can give out numerous prizes to the riders in the fancy dress competition, from ‘Best Hat’ to ‘Best Embellished Horse’. No one will be disappointed!

Emma and Will greet George, who arrives at Number One The Green with his unwelcome guest. Clive Horrobin says that he was happy to help George, and that he was a chip off the old block. Furiously, Emma berates George for believing the lies of his criminal uncle. To avoid George leaving again, she thanks Clive through gritted teeth for bringing him home. Clive claims that a near-death experience has changed him. Emma is unconvinced. In George’s room, Emma updates her son and urges George not to mention Clive to anyone. George tells her that Clive has advised him to stay quiet as Alice may get off anyway – why throw himself under the bus for nothing? Appalled, Emma pleads for him to think of human decency and Alice – that she and Will are in a much better position to advise him than his vile uncle. It is time to face the truth. Downstairs, Clive has settled in and means to stay and assures Emma and Will that he is now a peaceful person. But this soon turns to a threat – let him stay or he’ll tell the whole of Ambridge what George has done.
