Harrison finds himself in demand, and one resident finds herself in a nightmare situation.

Oliver and Harrison chat about the upcoming Flower and Produce show.  Clarrie’s making chutney and Oliver will be burying underpants for the ‘soiled pants’ competition.  When Harrison comments that Oliver’s not the first person he’s caught doing that today, Oliver explains that everyone who’s taking part has to bury a pair of new cotton pants between nine and midday today.  Later Harrison and Fallon have to cancel a romantic meal out so that Fallon can cover Tracy’s evening shift because she can’t make it.  Jolene doesn’t think Tracy would let them down without good reason.
Anxious Tracy goes up to Chelsea’s room to wake her.  When she’s gone Brad admits to Jazzer that he heard them chatting last night and he knows that Chelsea’s pregnant.  He thinks Bert might have overheard too.  They’re interrupted by Tracy rushing in; Chelsea’s not in her room.  Jazzer’s reassuring but when Tracy rings her it goes straight to voicemail.  Later Tracy notices that all Chelsea’s things have gone including her rucksack.  Jazzer thinks that might be a good sign; she’s probably staying with a friend.  But Tracy’s messaged all the friends she knows, and no-one’s seen Chelsea.  Tracy’s worried she’s run away because she made Chelsea feel really rubbish about herself.  She contacts Harrison who takes all the details, including the fact that Chelsea’s pregnant.  He tells Tracy she’s right to report it and is keen to get things moving.  Jolene offers her support and tells Tracy if Chelsea’s not back by morning, she’ll get everyone in the village on the case.
