There is a terrifying night in store for the Grundys.

There is a terrifying night in store for the Grundys, and Ed feels the pressure.

Clarrie's heard from Joe about Susan's lottery win. She can't believe her best friend would keep a secret like that from her. She tells Will that Emma laughed it off when she asked her, saying her parents had been saving up for years for that holiday. Clarrie's not convinced.

Emma's exasperated when George packs his bag because he wants to visit the puppy Holly at Will's house. She orders him to unpack. When he's not in his room later, distraught Emma worries he's gone to Will's on his own. But Will is at Clarrie's and Nic is out. Ed is angry. It's all Will's fault for taking in Holly. Emma begs him to look for George - now's not the time for blame.

When Will discovers George isn't at his house, Ed and Will's search widens. Ed blames Will, who snaps back that he can't look after a dog, let alone his son. They come to blows.

Pitching in, disgusted Eddie breaks them up. Refocused Ed has a feeling where George is - at the old shepherd's hut. When Ed finds him there, Emma's beside herself with relief. George tells her that it was Ed who found him, because he knew where to look. Quietly, Ed tells Emma he's bringing George home.
