Time starts running out for Brenda, and Tom puts his money where his mouth is.

While sitting in market traffic, Ruth tells David that Nigel collected the latest vintage of his wine yesterday. Elizabeth has confirmed lunch at Lower Loxley on Phil's birthday.

Noticing Eddie, David asks him to fast track them, but parking's nothing to do with Eddie, he's working in the ring today. David and Ruth hope the café moves with the market. Ruth considers taking some cakes home for the kids but reflects that Pip's never there. David heard that Pip and Jude were draped all over each other in the pub last night. Ruth thinks Josh deserves a cake as he's been good lately.

Brenda's up early, amending her application again, but her laptop crashes and she rushes into the Bull to re-write her latest revisions. Fallon tries to calm her down. Brenda's having one last look at her application when Tom surprises her with a brand new laptop. It's a lovely gesture, as she knows part of him doesn't want her to get the job. He insists that what she wants is important to him. But she should amend her application again to include her computer crashing in the bit about "time management under pressure", or maybe in "meeting deadlines". They enjoy a laugh together.
