The episode introduces Timothy's sister Muriel who manages to fly from the nest.
She has to come to visit the family although their mother does not speak to Muriel as she disapproves of her husband.
Muriel wants Timothy to leave with her but as always Mrs Lumsden is one step ahead.
It is clear by now that Timothy will never leave his mother. There is a sequence as both Timothy joins up with Muriel but you just know it is a dream.
There is a homage to Ronnie Corbett's storytime from the chair from the Two Ronnies as Timothy recounts a funny incident that happened at the library.
It looked like filler to me rather than a homage.
