Jenny was offered a film part and rejected it without too much regret. Betty Fox and Captain Brooke are now engaged. Tom has broken the news of the take-over to his father who was so angry about it that he has turned Tom out of the house. Meanwhile Sheila Elliot has had a row with her mother who accused her of neglecting her child. Mrs. Dale is insisting that Dr. Dale must go on a diet and reduce his weight.
