The Shaw's youngest daughter is admitted to hospital where it is discovered she is also showing signs of arsenic poisoning. The hospital decides to sponsor Fiona's entry into the Miss Wandin Valley Quest, but despite her strong showing, Muldoon's niece wins on account of his last minute rule change. Simon discovers the source of the arsenic poison on the Shaw farm and delights in telling Vicky, since as a vet, she might have suspected the old sheep dip as the source of the contamination. Vicky however has the last laugh when she gives Simon some distressing news about his so called "prize bull" calf. Ray Wallace's temporary hearing loss, resulting from a prank his friends played on Fiona, gives him insight into her world and draws the two closer. Molly learns the reason behind Chloe's colicky behaviour and comes to accept the necessity of giving up breast feeding.
