Ashley gets a call in the middle of their conversation from Sandy saying he's had a fall. Paddy goes to the school where Tess tells him they were inappropriate the previous day and has to take herself out of the situation. She mentions the fling, unaware Rhona is in earshot. Tess explains to Rhona that she needs to cover for a sick colleague in a different class. Ashley puts the Village Hall money in the drawer as Sandy insists to Harriet that he is fine after the fall.
