'The Trouble with Maggie Cole' Recap: Season 1, Episode 3
We’ve reached the halfway point of The Trouble with Maggie Cole and things only seem to be getting more complicated and twisty. Let’s take a moment to refresh our memories about last week’s fallout over Radiogate and the Outed 6.
Maggie awoke the next day intent on making things right with the village. She didn’t count on the phenomenal spread of her indiscrete gossiping via social media. While she moved forward to make amends with her GP Carol and provided a more acceptable explanation for the sudden windfall of the Roberts family, her best friend Jill proved to be a harder nut to crack. For further details, check out the recap.
As Episode 3 begins, we find Karen informing Peter of the online petition calling for his early retirement. Peter seems numb while his secretary is enraged on his behalf. (Poor Karen, in love with a man she can't have.) A rather chipper Jill drops by the headmaster’s office to “ask” if Marcus Ormansby can come in tomorrow to speak to her class about writing. A surprised Peter okays the visit when Jill mentions her friendship with the author is based on their common Outed 6 status.
