Robert struggles to stay positive, and Alistair finds himself in a difficult position.
In the village shop, Alistair and Harrison are looking for biscuits to improve their bad days. Alistair tells Harrison he鈥檚 sorry to hear of his and Fallon鈥檚 separation and offers advice and a chat if Harrison would like one. At the Tearoom, Alistair recounts his and Shula鈥檚 separation. He says there is life after divorce and that even he and Shula are friends again.
Lynda and Robert recount yesterday鈥檚 events to Lilian who鈥檚 shocked. Lynda makes some barbed comments to Robert, saying he did nothing to stop them taking Monty. Robert goes to answer the phone and Lilian asks Lynda to be fair to Robert. They are both missing Monty. Lynda thinks Robert鈥檚 didn鈥檛 defend Monty, who must be innocent.
Lynda asks Alistair for a character reference as proof the police have made a mistake with Monty. Alistair explains he was there after the sheep attack and had to euthanise some of the injured. Lynda pushes him to vouch for Monty, but Alistair argues that there鈥檚 not a single dog he could vouch for as all dogs are capable of attacking livestock. Lynda returns to Ambridge Hall and Robert asks her to sit down. He鈥檚 got through to the B&B guests from that day, and the children saw Monty coming in through the back gate with blood on him. They cleaned him to avoid getting him in trouble. Robert believes it might have been Monty behind the attack, and calls Harrison to tell him the news. They ask about what happens next so that they can have Monty back home.
