Jennifer’s stressed over Christmas part 1
Oh dear. If Jennifer’s stressed over a mini Christmas for Phoebe, her blood pressure is going to be pushed nigh high for the real thing.
Or, is she just so stressed because she knows Kate will utterly freak out if everything’s not perfect for ‘her’ Phoebe?
“So fruitful, like a bud that’s about to burst”
So says Vicky.
Vicky also says she very jealous of Helen.
Now I know Vicky can be an utter pain, but she is genuinely and absolutely happy for Helen.
And there’s few folks like that about …
Did Pat really want Vicky?
She seemed very unsure at first, but Pat seemed to quickly warm to the idea of Vicky working at Bridge Farm.
Does Vicky have a special gaze that she fixes on folks, hypnotising them to do her bidding?
Or, is Pat just that desperate?
Either way, Vicky seemed to sway Pat with her assurances that she can pick everything up quickly:
[Vicky] “Susan seemed to get the hand of it quite fast … so it can’t be that hard, really”
Vicky pointed out the obvious:
“If you’re so desperate … perhaps I can do that for you”
(that woman really has no dignity sometimes)
Vicky is local, and anyone they got in would have to be trained first anyway.
But Vicky clinched it with her sound argument that she has good inside knowledge:
[Vicky] “And I’m married to a milkman, aren’t I?”
Vicky got the job, but is it bad or good news for Bridge Farm?
Kate really is a warped b**ch
In the first place, Kate wanted an early Christmas so that she could spend it with Phoebe. But expected Jennifer to do all the work.
[Kate] “Mum – don’t stress, think festive”
Then, she buys (what sounded like) a huge pile of presents for Phoebe without warning Jennifer and Brian, and without herself buying extra for Ruairi.
The wee man was quite rightly upset that Phoebe had so many big presents, while he only had only teeny one.
Even Brian was surprised at the quantity of presents for Phoebe (and that’s saying something!)
Kate then kept interrupting Jennifer with saying “let Phoebe decide”. And she didn’t even notice when Ruairi stormed off upset.
[Brian] “Don’t you think it’s wrong for Kate to spoil her like that? …she’s trying to buy off her guilt”
Aye right you are, Brian! You started off this cycle, by utterly spoiling Kate in the first place.
Kate also finally tells Phoebe that’s she going to be away for longer than expected, which Phoebe takes in her stride, but is obviously upset.
[Brian] “Here we go again”
Yup. *sigh*
Vicky gropes Helen
And surprisingly, all Helen says is:
“I guess she can feel it whenever she likes”
Wow!
Helen was a bit taken aback at Vicky having a good feel of her baby, but does seem to have taken it all in her stride.
That’s just not like our Helen.
Great!
