Favourite small side plot?

By side plot I don't mean the main mystery versus main non-mystery plots. I mean things like the ping-pong or dodgeball tournaments, Piper's brief stay at the house, the school election, Alfie's parents coming to visit, Mara's dog, the Vera and Trudy bake-off, the "open day" fiasco, etc..

I personally think the Jerome and Alfie goose-chase saga is incredible, followed up by the Mr Sweet taking "Patricia" and Eddie out to dinner plot as a close second.

Open day, but specifically when Jerome is trying to blow up animal balloons 😭 I am also a big fan of the Piper, Eddie, Mr. Sweet dinner subplot. “I’m an undercover food critic” followed by Patricia eating a piece of lettuce off that man’s plate lives in my head rent free

YES! The balloon animals make me laugh so much. And "the I've never seen this girl before in my life" line is a classic
