Tom learns some uncomfortable truths.

Joe helps Eddie set up a flower stall outside the phone box. Later, Ed appears. Why is Eddie packing up? Susan's said she doesn't want him flypitching. Ed, who has some news, helps Eddie pack.

Eddie and Joe are delighted with Oliver's proposal that Ed becomes Grange Farm's tenant; Clarrie is more cautious.

Petrified Brenda is interviewed by Lisa Ramsey from the SFO. Brenda says she had nothing to do with C3PL. She worked for Matt on Borchester Land business. But Ramsey shows Brenda her own signature on a C3PL document. Flustered Brenda says she often witnessed Matt's signature.

Brenda tells Ramsey she had no reason to think anything dodgy was going on, until Matt offered to help Tom. Ramsey asks how this is connected to C3PL. Brenda's forced to tell her she overheard Matt and Chalkman. Ramsey asks if Brenda thought Matt's offer of help was excessive. Brenda protests: she was surprised but didn't know it was anything to do with fraud.

Broken Brenda arrives home and tells Tom everything. Tom's furious. Brenda's got him involved with a bunch of crooks - he could have lost his business, again! Brenda feels terrible. Tom says he doesn't know her anymore.
