At the butcher's shop, a row ensues between Mr Darnby and Penny, who picks up a knife. Looking for Penny, Jill and Ormerod arrive to find that Mr Darnby has been stabbed. As he's rushed to hospital, Penny reveals that her dad used to abuse her but thinks the police won't believe her because of her medical records. Can justice be done?
