Hayley speaks her mind. Meanwhile, Wayne is up in court.

Brian's pleased that Jennifer is a wealthy woman in her own right now. Jennifer is still unsure what to do with John's handsome bequest and is worrying what Carol will think. She decides to share her money with the children - each receiving £5,000. Debbie, Kate, Alice and Adam will receive theirs as soon as the money comes through. They should set up a trust fund for Ruairi. Brian is touched. She really doesn't have to do this. But Jennifer says she does, and she wants to.

At the magistrates' court, Wayne is feeling sorry for himself and in need of a drink. He hasn't the cash to pay a big fine. Fallon tries to comfort her dad.

Wayne is given 120 hours community service. There's a reporter outside the court taking photographs. Fallon is cold with PC Burns, who protests that he's only there for another hearing.

Roy's on eggshells with Hayley, who's now working from the cruck barn. Roy hasn't seen much of Elizabeth, and he has been busy with conference guests. Hayley says they need to talk about their work situation. They can't go on like this. Hayley doesn't want to work with Elizabeth but can't just walk out. Roy's job is their main income. He needs to go back to Elizabeth and tell her he has rights.
