Tony has concerns, and Emma has high hopes for Ed.
Ursula brings Henry round to Bridge Farm under mysterious circumstances. It transpires that Henry's foot was scolded by an over-hot bath, which was drawn by Helen. Henry started shouting that he "hated his mummy", and Rob did his best to calm the situation down. Tony points out how out of character this is for Helen, which Ursula attributes to hormones. Ursula's concerned by Helen's forgetfulness, and informs Pat about the problems with Henry at school. Ursula thinks the solution is for her, Pat and Tony to keep a watchful eye on Henry while Helen's pregnant.
As Ed clips ferrets' claws in the bedroom, Emma badgers him about accepting Adam's offer to study for a Certificate of Competence. Emma assures him that he is as smart as anyone she knows, when he wants to be!
When Ursula goes, Tony expresses concern that Helen might be suffering from anorexia again. Tony thinks he and Pat should only attempt to talk to Helen if she is susceptible to it - she needs to make the first move, or it might drive her away. Tony remembers how Henry's birth brought him closer to Helen, and hopes for the same to happen with this new baby. He believes Helen has a lot of people she can turn to... including Ursula.
