She spends much of the evening putting her foot in it. First with Roo:<img src="https://i.vgy.me/yNjkrC.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />And then with Nigel<img src="https://i.vgy.me/8waFn0.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />There’s a nice bit of back and forth where Celia keeps apologising and commenting on what an awful thing she’d said. Each time, Nigel assures her it’s fine and goes unheard:I’m very much enjoying Nigel. He’s a character of whom my memories are somewhat foggy. I don’t remember him making much of  an impact on me thirty years ago. He seems fairly unflappable and with a natty line for every occasion.Roo, as agreed with Morag spends some time making nice with Andrew (and ostensibly Carly). Laughing coquettishly and being very charming. Andrew and Carly leave early as he has an early start, but not before Morag has begun clearing the tracks for Roo by asking him over to dinner when he is back in town. The exchange leaves Roo with cold feet, and there’s a great visual when she touches on her own history to explain her reasoning:<img src="https://i.vgy.me/VRmQYL.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />The threat in the air thickens when Bobby arrives and is crisply greeted by her long lost mother:<img src="https://i.vgy.me/E5FFbE.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Helping Bobby make it through the evening is Donald, who is on hand with some encouraging words<img src="https://i.vgy.me/0j79ZT.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="https://i.vgy.me/vZjBaj.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Morag watches the two from across the room, and makes it clear to a confused Roo that she’s going to put Bobby firmly in her place with some well-chosen home truths.<img src="https://i.vgy.me/RAeQUQ.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Importantly, the end of #273 creates a strong feeling that Morag’s targets are trapped. There is every reason to believe that no matter what happens, neither Donald nor Bobby will be able to leave the premises before Morag has spoken her piece on her terms. Whether it’s due to etiquette, stubborn pride or morbid curiosity, there is every reason for them to stay. They’ve granted Morag her audience, and she is about to give them the show of their lives.continued...</blockquote>
