Geordie lass Rebecca is unimpressed with her new lodgings, while Sister Francis has little time for an attempt to smuggle in some vodka. But soon enough, the time allows Rebecca to reflect on her relationship with her father.
Convent life proves too much for two of the girls and a fight breaks out at the top of a cathedral. Sister Linda calms the situation teaching the girls about forgiveness. The girls persuade the nuns to let them go out to the local pub.
The Swaffham nuns' guests must spend time with three different orders. They channel their charitable sides in two of the orders, helping the young homeless and the grieving elderly, but it is a 24-hour silence with the enclosed Poor Clares that challenges the outgoing women still more.
The sisters set the girls their final test, to go home for a week and put to work the lessons that they have learned. They will then return to the convent to see who has changed the most.
