The identity of the mysterious Easter bunny is revealed and Ian faces a kitchen crisis.

Adil quizzes Ian about his ingredients in the Grey Gables kitchen but to Ian’s annoyance declines to stay for lunch. Roy adds to Ian’s displeasure by reporting that the oven cooking the lamb isn’t working. Ian refuses to take the dish off the menu even though it means more work for an already busy kitchen. Later, Roy applauds Ian’s determination. Going by the customer feedback Roy shares it paid off and Roy is hopeful for Grey Gables’ future.
Elizabeth is pleased with the surge in ticket sales for Freddie’s Easter activities. Freddie admits he invited the Borsetshire Bunny to start the egg-rolling but people have misinterpreted it as confirmation that the Bunny will be there. Adil holds up stressed Freddie by asking about the rules for the egg-rolling event. Freddie is about to announce the Borsetshire Bunny won’t be appearing when Elizabeth rushes up to him to say the bunny has in fact arrived!
Vince is impressed how Josh has used the Lower Loxley Easter events to market his eggs. Freddie remains hopeful that Vince is going to help him with his DJ-ing business. Freddie introduces Vince to Adil who despite getting mud on his suit enjoyed the egg-rolling. Meanwhile, inside Lower Loxley, Elizabeth thanks the bunny for turning up. Elizabeth worked out its true identity by looking closely at a photo posted online. Freddie rushes in just as the person inside the costume takes off the head – it’s Kathy Perks!
