Sinossi

Sadie's fortunes continue to plummet when she fails to convince Zoe to go along with a business deal. She later feels isolated further when Max and Carl give her the brush-off in the Woolpack. Feeling desperate, Sadie seeks comfort from Robert and when she visits him at Annie's cottage it doesn't take long for them to head upstairs. Post coital, Sadie feels worse rather than better. Realising that she's completely alone, she decides to escape and heads back to Home Farm to pack her bags. As Sadie flees the village, she promises Zoe that Jimmy will get his comeuppance when she returns. Elsewhere, Nicola is upset when Lesley mentions that Simon is due to be best man at his friend's wedding and she confronts him about why he has kept it quiet. Simon assures her that it just slipped his mind, but Nicola is left worrying about the strength of their relationship.
