Emma goes in search of inspiration, and Lynda's offer of support is refused.
Work's begun on updating the vet practice at the Stables. Lynda's impressed - it will feel much less oppressive. Alistair tries to encourage her to take out a health care plan for the llamas but she's not interested. Alistair has to admit the practice's website needs updating - he's agreed with Anisha to have it completely redesigned, and to increase their social media presence. Shula thinks Anisha's open day idea is great, and well timed.
Emma wants to pick Jim's brains. She's struggling to interpret Jennifer's land theme for her party. Jim has the germ of an idea and after some research he tells Emma about Zeus and the horn of plenty - a cornucopia, symbolising the products of a rich and fertile land. Emma's inspired; she knows Fallon will love it. She thanks Jim, he's a life-saver!
Kirsty's getting to grips with her first day back at work since her miscarriage. She's focused on all the tasks she has in hand but Lynda gently points out she has missed one. She offers to help but Kirsty insists she's fine. Lynda worries about Kirsty's overly bright enthusiasm; she should give herself time to grieve. But Kirsty's adamant she's dealt with it. She's sick of everyone treating her like she's made of glass. She just wants to do her job and get on with the rest of her life.
