- Ashleigh Lyall takes an interest in Lorenzo Bellotti when her private school's debating team challenges Lorenzo's team from Burrigan High. Lorenzo lives with his mother Rosa who works at home as a seamstress for a clothing factory in Burrigan. Their lifestyle is directly opposite that of the Lyalls who are one of the district's wealthier families (young Ashleigh drives around in an Alfa Romeo Spyder). Rosa refuses to see a doctor about the tenosynovitis in her wrists but when she burns her arms spilling a pot of pasta, Lorenzo gets her to the clinic to see Terence. Lorenzo earns a shot at a scholarship to attend university but puts off his studying to help his mother meet her quota. Frank feels his position as a police officer and public servant is turning into one of "public slave" when he is called upon to do such menial tasks as rescuing a parachuting guinea pig, babysit, deliver parcels, and catch dogs. Adding to his problems are a leaky roof and the need for a new cistern at the police station. His frustrations grow to the point where he considers resigning. Vicky is reluctant to accept a $40,000 loan offered by Simon's father to use as a down payment on a house, but in talking to her mother, Shirley explains to her that she has never been one to accept gifts and that this may be one time where she is "obligated to be obligated."
