 With Danny Kendall in hospital there are alternative fund-raising meetings all over the place. Imelda s excuse of "the donkey ate my diary" doesn t seem particularly believable to the increasingly over-wrought Mr. Scott. Imelda rips up her report card, and a fight ensues with Ronnie: Mr. Scott is almost reduced to tears, and seeks help from Mr. Kennedy. In his absence, the dispute with Imelda becomes a free-for-all fight, stopped by Mr. Kennedy. When it comes to the Danny Kendall meetings, Roland s one is hugely popular, and virtually no-one goes to the boring one with Mr. Bronson. Various auctions and sponsored events are proposed. Ziggy is keen on people sponsoring him to climb the school building, even though it is self-evident that it won t be cost-effective. Miss Booth turns up, bored with the official meeting, but leaves, feeling unwanted. Ronnie shocks Hollo by telling him that she s been going out with Gonch, who is about to return after his time in Saudi Arabia. In Harriet s stable, Imelda bullies Helen into revealing where Ziggy hid the tin with the sponsorship money, and she takes it.
