Freddie sacks Jolene from the cricket team for missing Thursday’s nets practice. If you miss two then you’re out. Lilian overhears and when Freddie’s gone mentions to Jolene that Tracy will also have missed two, so he’ll have to sack her too. Jolene thinks she can have fun with that. Later Jolene tells Lilian and Fallon she’ll reschedule the staff meeting, but she’ll make Freddie squirm for a few days first!When Freddie tells Rex that Jolene’s missing nets practice because of a staff meeting clash, Rex realises Freddie’s made a terrible mistake. Tracy will have to be sacked too! Freddie wonders then if Rochelle’s any good at cricket. Rex admits that he doesn’t know; they went on a date but then she disappeared and ignored his texts. He tried to clear the air with her last night, but she pretty much blanked him. Freddie suggests trying to talk to her again.Emma and Eddie both worry about Clarrie losing her job at The Dairy. When Eddie says Clarrie’s thinking of working at the Chicken Factory, Emma says she has an idea. Later she catches up with Fallon and suggests that Clarrie might be a perfect fit for The Bull’s Kitchen Assistant job. Fallon agrees to consider it, though it’s not just down to her. And when Fallon mentions the possibility of Clarrie working at The Bull, Lilian’s not keen. Jolene and Fallon accuse her of being ageist even though Clarrie’s younger than Lilian! Jolene suggests asking Clarrie to send in her CV, that way they can make a fair decision.
