Always read the small print when you join a library. Brian does Howell a favour and borrows a book of special magic from the library. It needs to be returned by nightfall and Brian gets too drunk and forgets.
Meanwhile Barbara's mother has arrived to spend a few days with her. Cassandra has just left her latest husband and Herman is smittened with her. Herman has a smart makeover and plans to propose to her.
Steg gets an allergic reaction to some moisturiser he tries and becomes a goblin. He experiences racism and violence before he is saved by another goblin who takes him to his house.
Howell sets about creating a bravery portion for Hawthorn the fairy because something bad is lurking in the forest, enough to scare even Hawthorn. The bravery portion is also used by Brian as he faces a penalty for late return of the library book.
A well constructed episode, you can see that the team has blended well by now. I just think there is a lack of stronger humour.
