Bert and Lynda have a difference of opinion. And is it time for Rex to seize the day?
Bert has completed work on the egg-mobile. As they tow the construction by tractor, Pip confides in Toby that recently she has had trouble connecting with Matthew. Toby takes the opportunity to suggest that Matthew is being pursued by other women. They set up the egg-mobile on the pasture at Hollowtree, and then erect electric netting. Afterwards they head to The Bull, discussing the awkward set-up of Kenton, Jolene and Jolene's ex all working together. Toby reckons "Matthew the magic milker has found another comely dairymaid". He urges Rex to seize his chance.
Carol admires the egg-mobile and says it looks like "The Good Life meets Doctor Who". Later, Carol and Bert have a chat in Bert's garden. Bert is annoyed that Lynda is marking a year since the Ambridge flood with her garden when it is not her responsibility. Talking of the flood, Bert remembers Rob as a "hero", but Carol is less convinced, and says he is "not my sort of man". They decide that if anyone's garden should commemorate the flood, it should be Bert's.
