When Jan sees some lilies, she is reminded of the past. When visiting her aunt, she had heard a call for help and followed the calls, where she met Ed and his great aunt, who had slipped and fallen. Jan returned often to see Ed and, although they loved each other, she found it odd that Ed referred to the Sea Horse as a new place though it had been there for years. Mrs. Frampton revealed that she was a botanist who had discovered the secret to prevent aging based on the lilies there. Ed was actually her assistant and they had lived there together for a century.

Synopsis
Sandie buys an expensive Chinese Pagoda suit in the hopes of picking up a man. Some kids make fun of her outfit so she bets them a quid that every man she meets tries to pick her up. When she finally sees a boy who isn't already with another girl, she tries every tactic she can think of to get him interested and fails miserably. Finally, the frustrated boy picks her and places her in the litter bin because she won't leave him alone. Sandie claims she won the bet because he did actually "pick her up".
