Ian collars Oliver after a staff meeting at Grey Gables. Adil hasn’t returned and Oliver has had to firefight with various heads of department. Ian can’t believe Adil’s cheek but Oliver warns him about finger pointing as that won’t help anyone. Ian apologises and details to Oliver the changes that need to be made to the kitchen – it won’t be a quick fix. He also outlines the problems he’s heard in other parts of the hotel. Oliver searched Adil’s office but couldn’t understand anything in there. Ian decompresses with Helen. The benefits he’s getting aren’t outweighing the level of stress he’s taken on. However, he’s not going to abandon Oliver and the team he’s building. Helen wants to know if any Grey Gables business for Bridge Farm is going to fall through. Helen has to open a door to reduce the smell of Lee’s drying trainers which sets her on a train of complaints about Lee around the house. She feels like she complains about everything he does at the minute. Ian puts it down to what they’ve been through recently but Helen doesn’t think that’s it. When Oliver enquires with Lynda about Adil, she says she’s not seen him. They go up to his room to see if he’s there. They find the room empty not only of Adil but also all of his belongings. A letter in a drawer addressed to Lynda from Adil says he’s had a family emergency. Both Lynda and Oliver feel for Adil’s circumstances. Meanwhile, what is to be done about Grey Gables?
