Martin receives his formal offer for the position in London and courtesy of Pauline, who steamed open the letter, everyone in Portwenn now knows he's leaving. Unsatisfied with the reference letter Martin has provided her, Pauline decides she will only work to the letter of her job description. Martin's reaction is simple: he fires her. Martin is also scheduled to attend a medical conference where Edith Montgomery will be giving a lecture. She's only booked one room at the hotel for both of them and Martin doesn't seem at all comfortable. An unexpected encounter with blood in the hotel's kitchen tests him. Back in Portwenn, Bert Large throws a baby shower for Louisa, where she is surprised at the large turn out. Aunt Joan meanwhile decides to open up her house as a B&B but her first guest leaves a lot to be desired.
