She explains that Jackie put her in the picture but he swears she's lying. Percy and Alf find confused Emily on a railway station platform. She has her slippers on. Gail tells Alma that Mike must love her - he went to a lot of trouble to get her to marry him. Jim tells Steve that he's laying him off. He hates doing it. Doctor Joyce Wightman looks at Emily and feels she needs rest, she admits her to a medical ward for tests to see if she needs psychiatric help. Ivy returns from her retreat.
