James has started biting not only Louisa but other children at the nursery. Louisa is worried but Martin puts it down to his age. Student Tina Collins (Samantha Spiro) is a classmate of Louisa's, who has spoken to their lecturer about it too. Martin is not impressed and Louisa takes it personally when Martin says there is something wrong with Tina. But Martin is proved correct, when Tina collapses from taking Modafinil, a smart drug, used for treating sleep disorders. Louisa is in the car with Tina driving, Tina loses control and crashes the auto. Martin says she almost killed his wife and son, and she's a menace to the public.
Penhale decides to have a police open house to raise community awareness, but local farmer Hannah Butler (Yolanda Kettle) arrives to file a complaint about theft of her sheep. Penhale is feeling so alone, that he asks for a session with Ruth to air his problems.
Morwenna leaves the surgery for a weekend away with Al at Hannah's camping site. Al is nervous to leave Bert running the pub but agrees. Hannah has orf (a viral skin disease which can spread to humans by handling infected sheep and goats) so cannot serve Al and Morwenna any food. Al decides to take matters into his own hands, which doesn't end well when he accidentally burns down the yurt. Now there's only Emily helping Doc Martin, but she quits. Left on his own, Martin injures himself, tripping over Buddy. With Martin in an inflatable cast, Mrs Tishell insists she help out as receptionist. Local butcher Trevor Dodds (Richard McCabe) arrives for his annual physical. He also has developed Orf, which is highly contagious. Martin enlists the assistance of Penhale to find out the identification of every customer Dodds sold meat to, and to destroy the meat. When Penhale arrives, Dodds has tried to kill himself with a knife, necessitating Martin rush to the rescue. Mrs. Tishell fills in as Martin's surgery assistant while he patches up Dodds. Morwenna and Al hitch a ride back to town with Penhale.[59]
