Rex is getting the pen up for the goslings, explaining to David that they'll bring them out tomorrow in the morning and then the goslings can spend the day in the pasture. Rex admits that Toby is much better on the marketing side. Rex asks after Ruth, who's away at Heather's. Rex offers to help out if David's short. David thanks him as he heads off to start the wheat harvest. Toby pulls up in his pickup, with horn blaring. Pip and Rex later debate grazing systems.
Brian takes advice from a solicitor - complaining about the bind that Debbie and Adam have put him in, and mentioning his natural son Ruairi. Brian wants to ensure the farm is a viable business, should Ruairi take an interest later on in life. The solicitor clocks that Brian wants to 'keep a firm hand on the tiller, whilst at the same time maintaining family harmony'. He advises a course of action which will ask Adam to put his money where his mouth is.
Eddie has had an accident so can't milk at Brookfield. Eddie also won't be able to help out next month when Pip starts her new job - as he has some big garden contracts coming up.
Pip plays it cool with Toby, who asks her along to the Game Fair. She doesn't want to be one of his conquests.
