Jill finds a friend in need.

Phil joins David and Ruth to say a fond farewell to the Brown Swiss bull, whose work in creating the crossbred heifers is now done. David and Ruth are now thinking of trying some other crosses. Phil acknowledges how things have to move on.

Meanwhile, Jill pays Peggy a visit. Peggy's upset that her attempt to do a bit of dusting has resulted in her breaking the cut glass cat that Jack gave her as a present. Jill offers to look for a replacement ornament. Peggy feels comfortable in Jill's company and is able to talk openly about her feelings. Peggy knows Jennifer is only trying to help but it would be good if she understood that there are times when Peggy just wants to be on her own. Jill understands this but assures Peggy that she's always got time for her.

Lynda asks David to play the role of Giant's Butler, with Kenton as Giant's Cook. Although initially reticent, the thought of playing slapstick alongside Kenton is somewhat appealing and Lynda believes David will realise it's the perfect casting.
