Helen visits Judy at Driscoll: her sister Sharon has joined a religious cult, the Children of the Alternative Life Force.

Despite Wally's insistence, Ann is reluctant to call the police and says she will phone Ted Douglas in the morning to confront him. Paul tells Ann that in any case the burglars didn't get the crycial negative as it is in Wally's flat. Pixie misses muster and the officers search for her but find she's hiding in her wardrobe, pretending she's been sleeping there all night. Joan is annoyed that Colleen seems to be humouring Pixie in her silly behaviour, and even more so when she finds it was a Governor's decision that no-one has told her about. Gerri Doogan is brought to Wentworth on a two week sentence for soliciting charges. Lizzie tells the women that Roxanne has had a baby boy. Gerri starts asking questions, paying particular attention to Bea. Joan tries to heavy Pixie into dropping her act by pretending to lock her in the wardrobe in her cell, as she suspects she is only trying to trick the officers. Bea tackles Gerri and doesn't seem convinced by her explanation of why she is so interested in her. Helen meets the reporter who exposed Harry Stanfield in a coffee bar and he agrees to get her some information on the cult Sharon wants join. Ann tells Ted Douglas that despite the burglary all the negatives weren't found and he demands the prison is searched when Ann reminds him the women have a copy of the photograph.

Sister Kelly lets Roxanne see the baby. Bea hints to Gerri that the photo is hidden in the clay for the pottery class. The Sheldons collect Roxanne's baby: she listens from the next door room, then goes to take the child the teddy bear given by the women, but stops herself and steps back into the room in tears. Pixie brings Ann her tea: the pot, milk jug and sugar bowl are all empty , but she pretends to pour Ann out a cup anyway, which Ann pretends to drink. Meg and Dr Weissman visit Laura's father to ask him to visit her. Helen and Judy go to meet Sharon, but Brother Red Earth comes instead and presses Helen to sign a release form for Sharon's money. Helen tells him she won't sign. Marty returns on shore leave with a new friend, Dennis.
