Tess was determined to save as many kids as she could from the sort of childhood she had. Along with her husband Toby, she now divides just about enough money and nowhere near enough time between their three adopted children Frankie, Alisha and Charlie.

Tess tries to improve Charlie's popularity by gate-crashing his classmate's 8th birthday party, while back at home Toby has to deal with Alisha's sudden interest in religion.
