At the village shop, Helen speculates on the possibility that Alice is pregnant, but she is soon set straight by Susan. Helen uses the opportunity to reveal the news of her own pregnancy, much to Susan and Vicky's surprise.
Later, Vicky and Susan discuss the "gory details" of donor insemination and Vicky admits she once considered it for herself. They are joined by Jennifer, who is shocked when she hears about Helen's pregnancy but agrees to spread the word.

Brian doubts the Carters' ability to choose a suitable caterer for the barbecue. Jennifer jokes that they will hardly serve Tom's burgers, but Brian feels she should check. On finding out that Susan has indeed asked Gourmet Grills to provide the catering, Jennifer resolves to talk to her.

Susan is daunted when Jennifer namedrops a caterer used by a member of the Borchester Land board, but agrees that she and Neil will contribute in some other way.
