Plot
Pip arrives at the bus stop in Beckindale, and is surprised to find Annie waiting for her. They go immediately to the Police Station. Dolly is still dazed by the prospect of her new stepfather, so much so that she can't bear to face her mother so she sends Jessie with a message instead. Relations worsen further when Mrs Acaster announces that she expects her new husband to give Dolly away. But Amos steps in and says he's sorry to disappoint Mrs Acaster - and her husband - but he's not stepping down. He's the right man to give Dolly away.
