For once, Emma's not the only one with matches on the mind - Mr. Knightley has his own suspicions about a possible match, and they center on none other than Frank Churchill and Jane Fairfax. He's convinced that it can't be a coincidence that these two are frequently exchanging meaningful looks. As a friend, Mr. Knightley has to look out for Emma, of course, even though she's not buying his theories. As Emma, Mr. Knightley, Jane, and Frank all meet for tea at Hartfield, you be the judge, dear listener, and let your mind ponder the question as it wanders into a restful and relaxing night of sleep.

Harriet is on the path to recovery, both from her encounter after the ball, and more importantly, from her attachment to Mr. Elton. To purge Mr. Elton from her system, Harriet needs to burn all her mementos of him: an old bandage and an old pencil that he once used. With Mr. Elton gone, Harriet is free to focus on a new mysterious object of affection. Emma suspects it's Frank Churchill, but vows not to get involved this time (after just one little bit of advice). Harriet is moving on, and as she does, let yourself move on into another night of peaceful and restorative slumber.

It is the morning after the ball, and Emma's lingering delight is swiftly replaced with concern. Harriet and Frank Churchill show up at her doorstep, after Frank rescues Harriet from a harrowing ordeal that left her injured and stranded on her way home from the ball. It's a terrible situation, but Emma can't help but think it's also a romantic one - after all, how often does a handsome young man rescue a beautiful young woman in Highbury? But she's sworn off matchmaking, so her ideas will have to remain untranslated into schemes, at least for now. As Emma tends to her friend, let this week's story help you move from your day into a night of soft and relaxing sleep.

The night we've all been waiting for is finally here - it's time for the ball! Settle in under the covers for an evening where all the major players in Highbury get their time to shine. From Miss Bates (heard without interruption for many minutes) to Mrs. Elton (nobody could care less for dress than her, but please take note that nobody else wore pearls tonight), this ball has it all. Not to mention Mr. Knightley gallantly stepping in to save Harriet from humiliation after Mr. Elton rudely snubs her on the dance floor. And to cap it off, Emma herself gets a dance with Mr. Knightley. What a delightful night! Let the finery of the evening help you forget your day and drift off into a night of gentle and restorative sleep.

Summer has arrived in Highbury! And with it comes the return of Frank Churchill and the plans for the ball at the Crown. Emma is convinced that whatever feelings Frank may have had for her are gone, though Mr. Weston is not so sure. Whatever the case may be, it seems like the Highbury ball will soon reveal all. As Emma prepares, let her thoughts carry you away into another night of quiet and restful sleep.

Our party at Hartfield concludes with a conversation between Mr. Weston and Mrs. Elton about the imminent return of Frank Churchill. Mr. Weston cannot contain his delight at the prospect of his son's return, and the situation of course reminds Mrs. Elton of her time at Maple Grove. The two are perfectly matched in their ability to keep a conversation going (usually past each other), which makes their interlude the perfect soundtrack to accompany you into a soft and peaceful night of slumber.

The Hartfield dinner party continues, and the evening is mostly filled with Mrs. Elton attempting to convince Jane Fairfax to accept her help in securing the most desirable governess posting (Mrs. Elton has seen a great deal of the world at Maple Grove, after all). But her chattering is interrupted with the surprise appearance of Mr. Weston, who has big news - Frank Churchill is returning to Highbury! Emma feels something at the news, but she's not quite sure what it is. As she ponders, let her thoughts take you on a journey into another night of restorative sleep.

Mrs. Elton is a popular new addition to Highbury society, so despite Emma's less-than-warm feelings towards her, she's decided to invite the Eltons to a dinner party at Hartfield. (Since Emma wouldn't want anyone to suspect that she dislikes Mrs. Elton, of course.) Join the Eltons, the Woodhouses, the two Knightley brothers, Mrs. Weston, and Jane Fairfax for a thrilling start to their evening, filled with conversations on such electrifying subjects as the post office, Jane's walk to the post office in the rain, Frank Churchill's handwriting, and many more! It's enough to put you straight to sleep, so let it do so and help you drift off into rest and relaxation.

Emma's opinion of Mrs. Elton hasn't changed - she's as insufferable as ever. In the absence of Emma's friendship, Mrs. Elton has fixated on a new target, Jane Fairfax, which is just fine with Emma. The person she's really concerned with is Mr. Knightley, whose fondness for Jane is slightly alarming. He denies any affection for Jane Fairfax, but Mrs. Weston is convinced there's more here than meets the eye. Who is right? As they discuss, let their conversation help you clear your mind and journey into another night of peaceful sleep.

Highbury has a new addition to its society - Mrs. Elton! She may be very elegant with her beautiful gowns, but that's really the only thing she has going for her. Between her high opinion of herself, her overfamiliarity, and her incessant talk of Maple Grove, Emma can hardly stand her. Harriet would have been a much better choice. But what annoys Emma will be helpful to you, dear listener, as Mrs. Elton's mindless chatter is absolutely perfect to distract your mind from the day, let it relax, and drift into a calm and restful night of sleep.
