At the Village Hall panto rehearsals continue to be more of a challenge than Alan had anticipated. Lynda isn't happy that the script doesn't satisfactorily explore the Evil Fairy's motivations. She insists on performing her "inner turmoil", which interrupts the flow of the scenes. Meanwhile Susan discovers that all the costumes Usha has brought for her to try are too small, and insists that Usha must have mistaken her size. Susan brings the rehearsal to a halt by objecting to Lynda's antics. Usha distracts Susan and prevents a full-scale argument by pretending to have made a mistake copying down her measurements. Alan's very glad to have Usha on his side. What has he got himself into?
