'There Must Be An Angel'

Julia catches Simon printing out information about Najmah and asks if he should be looking into the background of a social worker, particularly when she's a patient. Simon says she's right and throws away the information. Lesley goes to the Campus to have the graze on Scarlett's arm seen by Daniel, claiming that she fell out of a toy car. Simon arrives at the Campus and realises Lesley is there. He interrupts the consultation and Daniel is only too happy to leave Lesley with Simon so he can call Julia. Simon wonders why Lesley didn't take Scarlett to the Mill and she says her friend, where Scarlett hurt herself, lives near the Campus.

Lesley then breaks down, saying she was just scared that Simon would tell Najmah. She says that Najmah has it in for her, turning up yesterday and reducing her to tears. Simon reassures her and decides to confront Najmah. Outside Social Services, Simon offers to buy Najmah a coffee. At the Icon he subtly questions her judgement with Lesley, citing her lack of sleep. Najmah guesses that Simon's been looking at her medical records and storms out. Simon catches her up and gets her to agree to leave Lesley alone for a while, but Najmah warns him to stick to formal procedures from now on her she'll report him.

At the Campus, Daniel returns from his holidays and Karen delights in letting slip that Zara has been made a partner. When Julia concedes they've discussed Zara becoming a partner in his absence, Daniel hangs up and asks Karen to fax something to The Mill. Later, a shocked Julia arrives, keen to explain and stop Daniel from pulling out of the partnership. Julia assures him that no decisions have been taken, though he must agree that Zara's partnership makes sense, unless there are any personal reasons that might get in the way. Daniel says there aren't any and Julia leaves him to think about it, calling Zara on her way back to say that it should be good news.

Elsewhere, Ruth meets Gordon, the new man in her mother's life, and Jimmi asks Cherry to move in with him.
