Susan rides to the rescue. Meanwhile things fall into place for Kathy.

A cow's having a difficult labour at Brookfield. Ruth is concerned but wants to avoid getting a vet over. This reminds Emma about her money troubles and about Keith's situation.
Kathy wants to pin Jamie down for a conversation to find out why he's behaving strangely. But he's preoccupied and leaves to ask Fallon for more work at The Bull.
Tracy's trying to get Susan to go and support Keith in court but she won't. Tracy blames 'breaking up' with Ifty on Keith's reputation, even though they never went out. When Emma arrives, Tracy blames her too before storming off. Emma doesn't need any more problems on top of her financial ones.
With a successful new arrival at Brookfield, Ruth's happy that everything has gone back to normal. She sympathises with Emma over her family issues. Susan appears with some chicken pies to cheer Emma up, and promises that she will help out by buying Keira her new shoes.
Rosa is also trying to catch Jamie. After leaving him a voicemail, she gets on her scooter to April Cottage where she finds Kathy instead. Rosa lets slip that Jamie and Natalie have broken up. It's news to Kathy.
