Ed attempts to get to the truth, and Leonard takes offence.

As Ruth and David mend a fence someone whizzes past them in the lane. David reckons it was Leonard on his electric bike, as the person was wearing the same high viz gear. The roads are icy and David worries that Leonard might come off his bike, so he jumps into his car to catch up with him. But when David returns, he sheepishly admits that he mistakenly followed a scooter. Then Zainab appears demanding to know what David was doing. When David explains why, she calms down. Zainab reckons that she saw Leonard driving erratically near the village. Later Leonard鈥檚 upset when David and Ruth have a word with him. He wonders if they think he鈥檚 past it and likely to wobble off his bike into a ditch. Leonard may be less mobile than he was, but there鈥檚 plenty of adventure left in him yet.

Ed visits Emma at the Tearoom on his way to sort a tree job with Brian. Emma admits that every time a customer comes in, she wonders if they鈥檙e the one who complained about her being on the Parish Council. Ed suggests that she resigns as it might not be worth the the hassle. But Emma鈥檚 defensive; she鈥檚 good at it and she enjoys it. Later Emma wonders if it was Brian who made the complaint and Ed reluctantly agrees to see what he can find out. Later Brian explains that he can鈥檛 countenance the way Emma covered up a crime. And that does call into question her judgement justifying a complaint to the Parish Council. But it wasn鈥檛 him.
