Five women place themselves in the hands of a Norfolk convent. One woman is unimpressed with her new lodgings and attempts to smuggle in some vodka. Soon enough, the time allows her to reflect on her relationship with her father.
Two women fight at the top of a cathedral, a broken false nail is compared to world famine, and everyone wants a night out. The nuns' calming, wise words appear to be having their effect however and the girls are showing signs of paying attention.
The women 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 them most.
The sisters set the girls their final and toughest mission yet. They must go home for a week and put to work the lessons they have learnt. Who will have changed the most when the girls return to the convent for the reckoning?
