Gerald is perturbed to discover the Fraud Squad is still trailing him. Jack finds Vanessa easy to talk to and he confides his daughter's problems in her. Jan and James forge ahead in their new business venture HowardBrooke. Laura is keen to join forces with Ken but Tom is more reticent. With the fraud trial out of the way, Charles focuses all his attentions on removing Avril from Relton. He is also concerned that the Hudson's are keeping an eye on Abby. Furthermore, he is determined to find out who is responsible for implicating him in fraudulent dealings. Avril wants Leo to race for Relton and he wants her support in building a new boat. When Charles attempts to ruin Avril's reputation with the Relton board, he finds things are not as easy as he had imagined. Abby travels with Leo to the Isle of White. During a moment of passion they are interrupted by Polly. Abby and Polly, who has just returned from the States, argue about William. Later when she meets Gerald it is a cold reunion: he is particularly unhappy about her close relationship with Sir Edward. Ken's attempts to unnerve Avril fall on hollow ground. Charles meets up with Eckhardt Sahnn and persuades him to help oust Avril.
