Jennifer has a party to organise. And Phoebe faces a dilemma.
Jennifer insists that Charlie must have a leaving party before heading off for his new job and life in Perthshire - and she'll organise it. Charlie asks Jennifer not to go overboard, as he's not feeling like Mr Popular in the village. Helen's a little awkward when she and Rob invited (given Charlie and Rob's problematic work relationship). Charlie also asks Jennifer to keep to herself what she knows about Berrow Farm and the plans to close it.
Meanwhile, Toby begs for some cash from Rex as he has something to attend to in Brighton. Rex warns Toby to sort his life out. The Fairbrothers discuss their plans to get into eggs, and, whilst at the Bridge Farm shop, mention to Helen that a Health and Safety person is over in the Tearoom.
Jennifer encourages a worried and torn Phoebe, who has had an ultimatum from her boyfriend Alex - she needs to choose him or her place at Oxford. Jennifer admits that she would like to have gone to Uni herself. This could be the decision of a lifetime - she mustn't throw away a wonderful opportunity.
