- As the final preparations are made for the Havisham wedding, Arthur and Matthew put into place their plan to stop the ceremony. Meanwhile, at the Bumbles' workhouse it is the day of the inspection.
- As Amelia enthusiastically makes her wedding plans Matthew determines to stop the ceremony and brings in brewery board members to make her see sense. Inevitably though Compeyson sees through his plan and ruins it, making Amelia the more determined to marry. Mrs Cratchit is in a joyful mood, unlike Honoria, facing the prospect of a loveless marriage of convenience to a kindly and rich but unattractive man whilst the Bumbles' efforts to finally impress Gradgrind are scuppered by Oliver Twist.—don @ minifie-1
- The day before Meriwether's wedding to Amelia, returned Matthew has Arthur lure Compeyson away so that he can tell Amelia the truth about them. The Bumbles and the orphans prepare the home for the trustees' visit. Honoria objects to her planned union with Sir Leicester being spoken of so falsely by her father and Frances. Matthew gathers the board, which visits Amelia and urges her not to marry so hastily, as Compeyson will then control all her assets. Compeyson returns, telling Amelia of Matthew's love for her; Amelia accuses Matthew of self-interest, forbids Matthew and Arthur from visiting Satis House, committed to the wedding, clinging to Meriwether. Resigned, Honoria accepts Sir Leicester's proposal. Matthew leaves, vanquished as Amelia now trusts only Compeyson. When one orphan asks for more, the trustees, appalled at such disrespect, refuse the Bumbles' promotion; outraged, Mrs Bumble, kicks the boy (Oliver Twist) out.—KGF Vissers
