Script by Jonquil Antony
Productions by Betty Davies and Keri Lewis
Alec and Miriam called unexpectedly to see Janet at Colchester, where she had taken a job as a children's nurse. They told her she ought to tell her employer that she would have to give evidence at Caradoc's trial, but she refused. On February 29 Todhunter received proposals from nearly all his Valentines, but did not accept any of them. Fickling came to see Bob and offered his services to the garage as a taxi driver, with his own taxi. Richard Fulton refused to attend the first night of his play and returned his ticket; Sally found herself sitting next to Tony Coppard , who had bought it. Jenny, who had been suffering from violent toothache for several days, fainted at the end of the performance when she was taking her curtain call.
