| "A Different Drum" |
| Two men arrange to stop at the
Hudson farm to rest their cattle. Hugo is
suspicious of them. An unknown old man has a
heart attack and dies in the hospital, leaving
behind a young deaf-mute boy. The staff learn
that the boy's name is Jack and he was abducted
by his grandfather who feared never seeing him
again. His parents come for him. A young
expectant couple, Tom and Alison Newman, are
moving into the Valley and arrange to stay at
Esme's place. Tom is a Senior Police Constable
and his wife used to be a top real estate agent
in the city. One of the cattle dies and Hugo
calls Matt in. Investigation shows that the men
are criminals -- Hugo sabotages their fuel line
to prevent their escape and Tom chases the one
who tries to flee. Esme thinks Ivy has run off to
Sydney with the proceeds of the lammington drive
(but she hasn't). Alison is considering returning
to the city to go to uni. Harry has a cold. Lucy
falls while trying to replace a light bulb and
goes into premature labour at 30 weeks. Terence
is able to halt the labour with medication (and
Lucy's prayers!). Ally Newman suffers a
miscarriage but is not very upset by it...she
wants to concentrate on her career. Tom is
devastated, both by the miscarriage and by the
news that Ally doesn't want children. |
