It is Mungo's naming day. Meanwhile, Hayley is laying down the law.

Roy and Hayley discuss his options now that Elizabeth has offered his job to Geraldine. Hayley's ready to quit her job as well. Roy worries that Vicky knows what's going on - but Hayley thinks Vicky's preoccupied with selling up and moving to Birmingham. Hayley says they need to put together a credible story about why Roy's leaving Lower Loxley. She's determined to make Elizabeth pay, one way or another. Perhaps he can claim unfair dismissal. To Roy's horror, Hayley decides to consult Usha for legal advice.
Emma has been a great help to Fallon, who has everything together at the Dower House to save Leonie's baby naming ceremony. Leonie coos over baby Mungo. Having dished out some business cards for Leonie's friends, Fallon plans to take Emma to a brocante in France next week - a sort of flea market. Leonie says having a baby is the most creative thing a person can do, as she awaits the arrival of Mungo's 'guide parents' - Gustav and Anastasia.
At the unusual ceremony, Robert says a few words and Lynda reads a poem: Riders by Robert Frost. Lilian says some heartfelt words about her regret at being a bad mother to James. She promises to be a fun grandma to make up for it. Leonie takes a group photo, with nervous Lilian holding the baby.
