Pat is taken by surprise, and Pip gives Rex guidance.

Pip has a lead from a friend on some young beef cattle but her parents warn her that the farmer in question is a bit of a shark. Rex is interested in looking at Pip's work with the plate meter. Rex is evasive when Pip asks him what happened to his own plans to graze some cows. Rex declares he will be going with Toby to get the geese this year, because he doesn't want a repeat of the over-buying disaster of last year. Pip's distracted by her phone - it might be Matthew. Rex is crestfallen.
Rob arrives home from hospital with Ursula, irritated by her fussing. Ursula collects Henry from Bridge Farm for a visit. Henry has made a card for Rob, and is glad to see his daddy. Rob declares they'll get to do fun things together now he is off work. Henry wonders when mummy's coming home. Ursula distracts Henry by suggesting they go and look for some spare pyjamas.
Henry isn't delivered back at the agreed time. Pat calls Ursula, who announces Henry will be staying at Blossom Hill Cottage. Now that his father is back home, there is no need for him to be at Bridge Farm any more, is there?
