Keen to fit into village life as quickly as possible, Father Clifford has a trial for the local Gaelic football team and receives an injury. Siobhan confesses to Father Peter that she got so drunk the night before, she ended up sleeping in a field. He gives her an aspirin and in return she gives him a racing tip. Businessman Brian Quigley?s holiday home development seems stalled by a young couple living in a caravan near the site. Peter gets involved when he hears he is responsible for causing their baby's illness by ordering organic fertilizer to be dumped alongside their vehicle. Having nowhere else to go, Edso and his family are deaf to Father Clifford?s appeals. When it turns out that the land they are on belongs to Assumpta, who wants to sell it but can't afford to give them enough for a deposit on a house, Siobhan suggests they bet against their own side in the next Gaelic football match, a match in which Peter is the reserve goalkeeper. Meanwhile, Quigley is pressuring Niamh to marry Ambrose and there?s another stranger in Ballykissangel?Jennie, a young woman from Manchester and Father Cliffford?s past.
