Plot[]
It's the day of the local election and the candidates are all desperate to win votes, no one more so than Eric who is not adverse to using bribery to secure votes. Tricia announces her informal exit poll and declares Alan the winner, but will this result be reflected in the official count? Ashley is torn between his commitment to the church and love for Bernice when he is confronted by the Bishop about their relationship. A letter from Sarah poses a dilemma for Jack; should he show it to the children or destroy it?
