The Fellowship of the Suit

Several years ago Diver Dan, Angus and a few other locals formed a syndicate to share the cost of an Armani suit which they could use for those times when a suit was called for. All has worked well until Laura's sister, Trudi, arrives in town. Dan and Meredith watch on as old friendships are tested by the impossibly tight timetabling arrangements made by syndicate members as they scramble to impress the new girl in town.

Trudi visits Pearl Bay to heal the rift between herself and Laura - caused by her affair with Jack. Laura cannot forgive Trudi but she is forced to feign happiness during her visit to discourage Pearl Bay's ubiquitous gossip. Once alone, however, Laura upbraids her sister who ultimately shows her true colors.

At the same time, Laura is dealing with another family in crisis. Sergeant Grey's daughter is arrested, confirming long-standing suspicions about what is going on in the Grey household.
