Summary

George and Brad get thrown out of a taxi after George was burning hash. They text Rex, who can pick them up in 45 minutes. Brad suggests they tell ghost stories while they wait. George doesn’t know why Brad would suggest that when they are outside Grey Gables in the dark. Harrison passes and asks if they’re OK. Once the coast is clear, Brad and George use a bench to climb into Grey Gables through a ballroom window. George is confident he can talk his way out of it if anyone catches them. George asks Brad to take a video of him. He then gets spooked by a noise and runs to get out, with Brad following him. As they make their escape, Brad worries they’ll be found out. George can’t wait to brag about the trespass to his mates, which only worries Brad more. Susan and Helen meet to discuss how to acknowledge the increased responsibilities in the dairy. Susan credits Helen as a decent boss but she doesn’t think a positive blog post is enough. Helen agrees to give Susan and Clarrie a small pay rise. They also review the job description. Helen says they’ll look at getting in help if it’s really busy over the summer. As their meeting ends, Susan spots a police car arriving. Harrison comes in and once Susan has left, tells Helen that Rob Titchener is back in the country. Harrison tells her to try not to worry, but Helen is terrified. She’s certain Rob will return to Ambridge.

You're an adult. Who's side of you on, Brad?
