He wants to turn their parlour into a bedroom for the kids when they're born. Sam is against the idea. Annie and the Wilks' make up. Marian mentions that when Henry's leg gets better, she wants to get away from Beckindale for a bit. Amos tells Frank that he has nothing to worry about with Joe and Janie, as Joe is interested in Marian. Jack wakes up in London with a hangover and invites his friend Bart to visit Emmerdale Farm. Annie tells Joe that he is a fool for trying to better himself, she says Marian is not for him. Janie visits Frank and asks him to fix the handlebars on her bike.
