Further details
The legacy of the Ivy fight is proving problematic. Hilary has accused Kim of making an inappropriate remark and is insisting on disciplinary action, forcing Kim to call in her union rep.
The ensuing meeting does little to sort out the mess and, feeling vengeful, Hilary demands the ward be shut down for a "deep clean", which forces extra work on the already hard-pressed staff.
Meanwhile, Pippa, undaunted, leaves them to get on with it, heading for foreign climes with her stool sample research finally complete.
