The Brookfield cows go out. Meanwhile, Shula and Alistair are proud of Daniel.
Shula and Alistair spot Dan in the passing out parade, and are very impressed with the ceremony. They are especially proud when Dan's platoon commander praises Dan's leadership skills. He congratulates them on their impressive son.
David and Ruth watch the video of the cows going out that Pip has made for the SAVE website. Along with Josh's footage of the flood, they think it would be a good idea to build it up to make a 'year in the life'.
Shula and Alistair talk over the change in Dan since he joined up a year ago and how much he has blossomed and loves what he's doing. Alistair wonders if he is right to look for new premises for his surgery. Perhaps he'd be better joining a larger practice in view of the way the business was struggling before the flooding.
Dan asks his mother what's wrong. Shula mentions having met an old friend this week. She wonders whether she has made the right decisions in her life. Dan's positive, though. This is a whole new chapter for Shula - and for Dad. Life isn't over yet, surely.
