It's the night of the golf club dinner and there's a new crisis for Kathy to handle.

Matt's looking forward to the golf club dinner dance tonight. Anxious Lilian dresses to impress - one in the eye for the Borchester Land directors. 

Busy Kathy literally bumps into Jennifer. Kathy's harassed by last minute arrangements for tonight's event, which she's been organising. Lilian admits to Jennifer she's nervous about the board members looking down their noses at her. So she's relying on Jennifer and Brian to be sociable. 

After Lilian is snubbed, Matt eagerly leads her over to Jennifer and Brian, who are also trying to avoid the Borchester Land directors. Brian notices Benedict and new wife Amanda, then spots Benedict's ex-wife Amelia at the bar. The two women later end up arguing, much to Lilian's amusement. 

Kathy's grateful when Kenton promises to be a credit to her tonight, despite his initial misgivings. He makes an effort to help with canapes, but Kathy reminds him he's there as a guest. Later, though, Kenton disgraces himself by getting into a drunken argument with Leigh from the golf club, over his girlfriend. 

Kathy furiously drives Kenton home, before going back to clean up the damage. She just hopes she still has a job after tonight.
