Ulverscroft.
When Isabel is invited to serve on the advisory committee of the Scottish National Portrait Gallery, her husband Jamie expresses concern about the demands on her time. Never one to duck an obligation, however, Isabel says she'd be happy to join. There she meets a woman named Laura, whose husband and son are at odds, and who asks whether Isabel might arbitrate between them. Isabel is reluctant to intervene in a familial drama; but, always one for practical and courteous solutions to theoretical problems, she feels obligated to help. Will the demands on her moral attention never cease? In the meantime, Jamie - having criticised Isabel for getting involved in the affairs of others - does precisely that. Hes helping to select a new cellist for his ensemble, but suspects that the conductor may be focused on something other than his favoured candidate's musical skills...
