Ruth asks Len to help her at the Community Centre/Mission, running a handyman class. Ena walks out of a Mission service, feeling that dancing classes is not the Lord's work. Wally attaches himself to the Rovers as potman. Val signs up for the playgroup at the Mission. Ena feels lost and alone and gets no comfort from prayer.
