Things come to a head when Reg becomes suspicious that Richard is writing stories about him. Of course, as regular listeners to this podcast know, Richard wouldn't dream of doing such a thing.

We learn of the possibility that she may use machinery installed in her vehicles to do the waving for her, and - when it's clearly her own hand - how small shifts of her gloved fingers might convey certain messages to certain people. Conspiracy theorists, eh? What will they think of next?
