 It s Sunday, and there s a car boot sale at school. Not only that, but there s a Drama meeting, and some football trials. Jacko collects things from home to sell, to raise money for his idea of taking his mother to the seaside. He does so, hiding what he s doing from his dad, and although it breaks his heart, he puts his electronic keyboard in the bag to take to be sold. Mr. Robson goes round to Martha s house, but she s busy with her PhD. Anna s also there, with a last minute attempt to take a part in the play. Jacko and Becky find they can t sell at the car boot without a car, but Becky borrows Mr. Robson s keys to use his vehicle. At the footy trials, Mr. Robson is told that Arnie is more used to rugby than football, so puts him in goal. When it comes to the point in the play where Romeo is due to kiss Juliet, Brian Shaw can t summon the nerve to kiss Jessica Arnold, and Anna gets annoyed and storms off. Joe suggests he take the part of Romeo, but he s stuck as Mercutio. After the trials, Arnie and Sam discuss the game. By the bins, they make an astonishing discovery - a tortoise on the ground. They pick it up, and then Anna appears with one too, with the comment "Anyone want to buy a meat pie with a hard crust?" Then, the owner turns up, a disreputable looking man who explains he s selling them on his car boot stall. He gets stroppy when Arnie tries to tell him it s illegal to sell tortoises. Arnie doesn t buy his flimsy excuse that he s selling them on behalf of owners who want shot of them. From the balcony, they spy on his van, and note he s got a whole load of them. Wanting to follow the van, Arnie and Sam head off to their bikes, but there s a shock in store. Their bags and bicycle pumps are missing - they ve just been exchanged for an item on Jacko s pitch by Anna. As the boot fair comes to an end, Dudley makes an offer of £20 for Jacko s keyboard - he was hoping for £70, but there were no takers. Jacko reluctantly hands over the precious possession, but tells Becky he got £35 for it. Sam reclaims his stuff from a despondent Jacko, and he and Arnie head off in pursuit of the tortoise-selling van owner. They manage to keep up with him in traffic, and follow the van down a narrow lane where it is parked inside a tatty garage. Hiding behind a bush, they observe Richard and Maria walking hand in hand, as they walk down to the canal. Becky makes a decision - she offers the money she was saving for a jacket towards Jacko s cause. He refuses, but she is adamant, and he capitulates, with the proviso that she comes too. As Arnie watches, he sees the tortoise seller put a sack in the back of his van - to his mounting horror, he notices that something inside is wriggling around...
