"Ever After" - Season 05, Episode 08

- by Karen

Mrs. Tishell's husband, Clive, returns. His hearing is still pretty good but now he's got other health issues. And he wants to retire and runaway with Sally to some rather exotic places. In a camper. Not far from Portwenn. She's not ready to give up the business... or the Doc. But none of that matters because thanks to a prescription cocktail -- she's feeling freer than ever. Oh yeah, and delusional.

Everyone at the school is sick, including the cook, so what's the Portwenn school to do?
Call Bert Large, of course! Even though he doesn't follow any of the school's nutrition guidelines, he's happy to lend a hand. Lucky for Bert -- and Al who's come to help his pop -- like American kids, these children would much rather have chips as their lunch anyway. As far as Bert's concerned, it's a win-win.

A young, newly married couple is spending some time in Portwenn on their honeymoon. She's suffering with a serious rash on her chin but they're so in love it doesn't matter the cause. Their affectionate ways make the Doc feel ill, but their passion for each other and a passing comment turns out to be just the thing the Doc needs in the end.

And then the story takes an interesting turn...
Mrs. Tishell offers to help the Doc by watching James Henry. But when the Doc goes to pick him up at the pharmacy, Sally has closed up shop for the day. She split with the baby and is nowhere to be found. Together Doc, Louisa, Aunt Ruth and PC Penhale hunt her down. It's a sensitive situation considering she's having a psychotic episode. Nothing left to do but profess his love to her. Indirectly - but he at least he gets the job done.

Martin finally gets to say what he's been holding back for so long. Louisa finally gets to hear what she's been wanting to hear for so long. And Mrs. Tishell is headed for a little drug rehab.

At the end of Season 5 they're all getting a fresh start.

In our final episode we'll enjoy trying new positions, a secret rendezvous, news clipping shrines, a blinded cop, and lazy babies getting waited on hand and foot. 

Ever After is just getting started... we can only imagine what Season 6 will bring. 
Enjoy!
