Alice hatches a plan and Toby tries to put off the inevitable
Toby’s trying to avoid Helen. He’s putting off telling her the milk gin scheme is a non-starter. Kenton covers for him, but finally Helen catches up with him. As he bumbles through his explanation of mistakes in the figures and the bottom line that he can’t afford to pursue it, Helen laughs gently and assures him that whilst it’s a shame, she’s fine with it. He shouldn’t worry too much. Relieved Toby changes the subject; the new Borsetshire Blue seems to be going down well. Helen agrees. She’s hopeful the gamble has paid off.
Alice is fed up of Kate using her as a Jakob substitute and dreaming up distraction activities for them both. Once out of Kate’s way she goes to see Jakob. She lays it on the line. Kate can’t cope without him, she’s mad about him, and any impression he has to the contrary is just a front. She recommends direct action on his part is what’s needed; she can guarantee it will work. Jakob does as prescribed, and whilst Kate makes him work for it, he manages to convince her with charm and humble apologies that he genuinely likes her. She admits the feeling’s mutual and Alice walks in to see how it’s going just as they fall into each other’s arms. Relieved Alice retreats.
