 Meg ~ Elspeth Ballantyne Joan ~ Maggie Kirkpatrick Ann ~ Gerda Nicolson Joyce ~ Joy Westmore Nora ~ Sonja Tallis May ~ Billie Hammerberg Willie ~ Kirsty Child Daphne ~ Debra Lawrance Lexie ~ Pepe Trevor Lou ~ Louise Siversen Julie ~ Jackie Woodburne Jenny ~ Jenny Lovell Alice ~ Lois Collinder Mervin ~ Ernie Bourne Terri ~ Margot Knight Pippa ~ Christine Harris Howard Simmons ~ Reg Evans Sister Hall ~ Gael Andrews Dr Weissman ~ Bryon Williams Harriet Formby ~ Maggie Steven Waiter ~ Michael Brookes Joan's house seems to have the same traffic outside as Meg's flat... Muster for the laundry is "Beecham, Brent (?), Collins, Flynn, Kennedy, Patterson and Young". Fortunate, isn't it, that the visitor whose pass Julie steals apparently fails to turn up? | Officer Slattery helps Daphne with her scalded hands: Lou is at first suspected by the women of hurting Daphne but she points out that she was the one who called for help. Terri and Joan find they have two of everything, including televisions. Terri saucily suggests they could put one in the bedroom and watch it in bed. Nora is disgusted that Daphne is not getting proper treatment for her depression. Pippa reassures Anne that her relationship with Kensai isn't serious and asks if she could help with screen printing classes at Wentworth. Lexie is disappointed to be allocated to the laundry instead of the kitchen. Joyce agrees to help Mervin by getting Nora into the kitchen in the afternoon. Pippa visits Jenny in Wentworth, and is disturbed by Jenny's assertion that Anne is not a friend to her any more. Dr Weissman is called to see Daphne and is now convinced that she has PMS. Jenny sees her new solicitor again after he has seen George, but is disheartened when he tells her that his evidence may not be enough to prove her innocence. He tells her he will follow up by investigating why George was sacked so quickly by Aunt Harriet. Daphne gives a garbled version of her interview with Dr Weissman to the women: Nora realises they intend to try to have Daphne released using her PMS as a defence. After returning from her mother's funeral, Julie starts work in reception, and takes a visitor's pass from Ann's desk. Joan gets jealous when she finds Terri engaged in giggly girlie chat with Pippa. May suggests an essay competition to decide who should fill the post of editor of the new paper. Julie gives Lexie the pass and information on when the guards change duty in the afternoon. Joyce and Mervin ask Nora for help against Lexie's blackmail. Terri lets Joan know she was being unreasonable in her attitude to Pippa. Ann aks Meg to keep an eye on Joyce who apparently seems "a bit vague lately" (...how could they tell?). Julie reports to Ann that she has noticed some duplicate payments over the last three months and can't balance the ledger. Willie accuses May of stealing her bath pearls, which leads to a little disagreement. Nora orders Lexie not to reveal Mervin's secret, and tells her she will have to face the Council. Despite Julie's speaking up for her, Lexie is punished by the Council (it appears later to extra cleaning duties?). Joan and Terri go for a meal together, but the evening is spoilt when a waiter mistakes Joan for Terri's mother. Joyce is upset when Mervin suggests that they should leave and go and live in the country to avoid their problems. Terri reports the missing pass to Ann: Julie returns it by hiding it in a file then "finding" it. Willie overhears Terri and Joan's intimate conversation. Aunt Harriet visits Howie at his office and when he tells her he has traced George, she tries to buy him off. Nora and Meg find Willie unconscious in a cell with a locker on top of her.
