The police turn up at Beechwood looking for Rochelle or anything that could help locate her. While officers search the house Joy tells DC Tanners that Rochelle has been staying with Rex, then left a message about going away. Joy had no idea what Rochelle was planning though. DC Tanners then explains about taking away all their internet enabled devices, including mobile phones. After the police have gone Mick helps Joy tidy up. Joy still believes Rochelle’s a good person with strong beliefs, but she’s never been good at knowing when to stop. Later, Rochelle rings Joy on the landline. She’s handed herself in to the police but doesn’t want a solicitor. Nevertheless Joy tells Mick she’s calling Usha.

At the cricket, against Roserran-in-the-Vale, Lawrence quizzes reluctant Lynda and Freddie about what’s been going on with Rochelle, then makes a cutting remark about supermarket sandwiches. After he’s gone Lynda commends Freddie for his bravery, both on Thursday at the abattoir and following the explosion at Grey Gables. Freddie admits he’s not sleeping well, constantly thinking how things could have gone worse. Vince has given Freddie a list of things to work through, to take his mind off it. To Lynda they are both heroes, setting a fine example for the team to follow. The match itself is hotly contested with Ambridge just managing their first victory of the season, thanks to Rex. Lawrence is gracious in defeat, but Lynda isn’t convinced by his sentiments, a feeling that is confirmed by Lawrence’s patronising comments about Ambridge’s tea offering.
