Oliver and Caroline are going for a ride. Caroline asks about Oliver's meeting with the man from the CLA, about setting up a farm tenancy for Ed. Oliver says they'd lose money and would be better off selling. Oliver agrees with Caroline that, if they sold, they'd lose the stress connected with the farm.

Oliver and Caroline suddenly come across David, Tony and Jazzer in the woods. They're looking for Harry, the missing boar. Tony says he hadn't realised how upset Tom and Brenda were about it until he saw them last night.

Oliver and Caroline continue their ride. Economically, selling makes sense. But Oliver wants to stay in the house, surrounded by a working farm. Ed's become a reliable employee and a friend. Ed mightn't be interested in renting, but maybe Oliver will sketch out a few figures.

Lilian tells Matt he can't carry on skulking at home. Matt says he's getting things sorted. He's just called Chalkman's PA, saying if he hasn't heard from Chalky by the afternoon, all bets are off. Later, Matt's surprised by a text from Chalkman. It says he's 'sorting it - don't say anything'. Matt's furious. What the hell's Chalky playing at? Lilian says it's obvious - Chalky's stitching him up.
