Later, Mike goes to see Brenda. She isn't happy about Vicky wanting a ticket but says she'll see what she can do. Helen appears. She tells Brenda she's fed up with working too hard and keeping an eye on Annette and Jazzer. Why don't they go for a goss at the Bull? Annette appears at Home Farm and helps Alice catch Spearmint, who's escaped. Alice asks Annette if she'd like to go for a drink some time with some of her old college friends. Annette's delighted. At the Bull David's pleased they got the combining done before the rain started. David tells Mike that Kenton's miserable, as the owner of Jaxx has refused his idea of turning the place into a bar. Helen apologises to Brenda for whingeing on. Annette comes in and tells Helen she's going for a drink with Alice next week, and Helen's thrilled. She and Brenda wonder if there are any hot boys in Alice's crowd! Episode written by Carole Simpson Solazzo.
