Meg does not appear in this episode. | Judy refuses to help Hazel, even by putting all her pills at her bed-side so she can take them herself. Bea tells the women of her suspicion that Phyllis isn't working for Sonia, but for Joan. Ann can't see any reason why Pixie shouldn't be allowed to reply to the responses to her ad provided she doesn't break any of the censorship rules. Sonia gives Bea notice she intends to take over, and intends to buy the women's support. Petra rejects Sonia's latest overtures of friendship and tells her she won't find Bea so easy to get rid of. The women help Pixie to compose her replies, though as Lizzie remarks there are a few that are too depraved even to read - like the one from the man who says he has a "German Shepherd" (...?!) Sonia suggests to Joan she turns a blind eye to the making of illicit grog, and Joan sees the appeal of Sonia's argument that Joan couldn't be blamed because no-one would ever believe she could be involved (..really?) Joan makes Pixie pick up one of her letters after Sonia has contemptuously screwed it up into a ball and thrown it on the floor. Wally warns Judy not to risk being sent back to Wentworth for aiding a suicide. Joan orders Lizzie to steal material from the kitchen, while Sonia saves potato peel from a huge pile Pixie has peeled ![]() ![]() ![]()
