Script by Jonquil Antony
Dr. Dale had Bruce Laurie's petition against the Parkwood Hill Hospital being taken over for children defeated. Bruce was very annoyed and talked of going to a country practice. Dr. Dale wondered whether he ought to leave instead, which upset Mrs. Dale, but she determined not to let the Doctor know this. Sallv tried to persuade Mr. Fulton to agree to the amendments needed to his book, but he remained obstinate; and David, worried about the misunderstanding, stayed out very late so as not to burden Gwen with his troubles; but she thought he must have met with an accident. Bob wrote to tell his parents that he had decided what he wanted to work at, but he was not going to tell anyone of his plans until he knew definitely that he had the right qualifications.
