Ruth tells Anne she is supposed to be helping, Anne asks her to sign a form but tries to stop Ruth reading the form. Ruth realizes it is for life drawings and it is no big deal, and no wonder Anne was so embarrassed about it. Anne says she is not embarrassed about the classes but knew Ruth would get uptight about it, Ruth asks if Anne thinks she is a prude and the human body is a gorgeous thing and some of the greatest master pieces in the history of art have been nude studies. Anne jokes she is hoping to make extra money modelling for the class, which Ruth laughs at saying she is lucky the school has a progressive attitude towards art as it was different in her day. Anne jokes it was cave paintings.
Lance enters, Ruth asks why he is home early, he says he was sacked.
Number 28

Toadie runs though stinking making everyone complain. Karl asks what's the committee is organizing, Libby says a function which Karl says it just a pseudonym for party as Libby leaves.

Karl is dejected no one is willing to listen to him, Susan says it is nothing new.
Number 32
Ruth is shocked Lance would break in, he should have told the owner what he did. Lance defends himself saying it was Toadie and he would have been sacked it he had told his boss, Anne says which he did anyway. He says if they did not get caught they could have fixed it and got away, as Ruth asks where Jarrod is there is a load knocking.
Ruth wants to hear Toadie's story before they confer, Anne come back winging about the smell of Toadie. He explains that they went back to clean plants they accidentally sprayed and they were caught, Toadie hid in a manure bin. Ruth says that must be true and why did they not own up. Toadie asks her not to tell the Kennedys, she says she will decide in the morning.
Everyone is rushing in the morning, Ruth says she will explain to Mr Johnston what was really happening, Lance wants her not to as he would be embarrassed and he won't get his job back, but Ruth does not agree and shouts to clean the kitchen and not to forget to feed Bonnie as she leaves.
