Rosa offers a shoulder to cry on. Meanwhile Adam makes his choice.
Adam is starting to break under Brian's concerted pressure. He agrees to be fully committed to running the arable business, and that includes supplying the new dairy. Brian appreciates this. He knows it can't have been easy for Adam.
Rosa has got to grips with her new scooter. When Kathy lets slip the details for Natalie's results party it seems there is no keeping her away, invite or not.
Natalie, already intoxicated by her exam success, is tipsily lauding her A grades over the less successful Jamie. When Rosa comes upon him he is sulking in the kitchen, but she doesn't think his claimed two As, a B and a C are anything to be ashamed of. Jamie seeks solace by test driving Rosa's scooter on the driveway. But Natalie finds the pair closely entwined in an intimate discussion. Enraged, Natalie declares that she and Jamie are finished for good.
Jamie skulks home to find Kathy waiting up for him, keen to hear of his success. He spits out his results: two Cs, a D and an E. He knows he's messed up and insists these exams will be his last. He's not going back to college in September and he's not going to university.
