It is never too late for a fresh start. And Pip has got her work cut out.
Josh swiftly sorts the problem with the egg-mobile that Toby spotted yesterday. Toby tries to gather information from Josh about Pip's relationship, and Josh reports that she's pining over Matthew. The Fairbrothers invite Josh to help them move Lilian out of the Dower House, but he must revise.
Ruth scolds Josh for neglecting his revision. Pip's texting Matthew every detail of life at Brookfield, while the new cows are skittish at the milking. After several attempts, Ruth, Pip and Josh finally have some success with them. But how long is it going to take to milk them all?
Jennifer drives an anxious Phoebe to college for an exam. Jennifer and Lilian discuss the Fairbrothers, and Lilian gets the impression they're helping her move because they're short of money. Jenny lends a hand as well. Later, Lilian tells the Fairbothers about her arrangements with Justin, her new tenant and boss. Toby points out that Justin was the owner of a farm that went bust, which Lilian refutes. Lilian reminisces about her life and loves as the Dower House is emptied around her. She will be seventy next year. She feels that is "awfully late" to be making a fresh start.
