2. E2. Flora's Big Mistake

   Jun 30, 1981 · 30m

   Accompanying Cissie to the doctor's surgery, Flora overhears the doctor discuss a terminally ill patient, and assumes it is Cissie. Thus she runs herself ragged ensuring her friend's last days are as comfortable as possible, roping in the others at the home. When she learns the truth, Flora is less than enthusiastic — especially as Cissie knew all along and was enjoying the attention.

5. E5. The Gipsy's Curse

   Jul 21, 1981 · 30m

   When gypsy Maddalena visits to tell fortunes, Flora is scornful and dismissive, resulting in Maddalena putting a curse on her.

   After arguing with everybody and storming out, Flora returns some six hours later with a bandaged head: claiming to have had an accident and lost her memory, she is uncharacteristically sweet and delightful to be around. Whilst Mildred believes she is faking, and Cissie takes advantage of the situation to get her own back, Miss Milton's idea to jog Flora's memory finally does the trick.
