Lisa Scott has dinner with Constance and Clive Merrow. Constance tells Clive that she likes Lisa.
Sandy talks to Meg in the sitting room and tells her that things haven't been easy lately between her and David, and
the only way she can solve that is by making David an equal partner. "I don't suppose Hugh would agree with it," says
Sandy. "No Sandy. It's your idea and my decision, and I say yes," says Meg.
Sandy telephones David, who is on duty in reception, and asks him to come to the sitting room. David goes
to the sitting room and Sandy leaves him and Meg alone. Meg tells David that there has been a lot of trouble recently
over shares so she is going to sell him 1% of her shares so that he is an equal partner. She tells David that it
was Sandy's idea. David asks Meg how Hugh feels about it and Meg says she will tell him later. "Thank you Meg,"
says David, holding out his hand to shake Meg's. Meg shakes his hand, then pulls her towards her, hugging him.

is going to make him an equal partner. "Guess whose idea it was. Sandy's," says David. David takes down
the picture of Chris. "What are you doing?" asks Rosemary. "I want you to take this back to Switzerland with you,"
says David. "Oh I couldn't," says Rosemary. "No, I want you to have it. Here," he says and hands her the
picture.
Constance Merrow tells Vera that Clive seems to like the way she treats him. "You know at the beginning of this
I said you'd win him over. Well, you've won and I've lost," says Constance.
