Elizabeth and Vince meet for lunch. He’s not bothered by Lily’s outburst yesterday. It shows she cares at least – his children don’t take any interest in him. Back home, Elizabeth suggests to Lily and Freddie that could put any questions they have about Vince to him directly. To Lily and Freddie’s horror, the doorbell rings…
Things start awkwardly between Vince and the twins, before Vince takes charge of the situation. He couldn’t care less what they think of him but he thinks it looks bad on them to be judging him based on gossip. Freddie and Lily report back to Elizabeth on their chat with Vince. They’re both still concerned about their mum dating him, but Elizabeth is sure she can handle Vince.
Ruth reports that the archaeology students haven’t unearthed any finds from their investigations at Brookfield. Pip rolls her eyes at Ben chasing after Evie. Later, Pip and Josh argue over the use of a field – Josh says David gave him the OK to move his hens there but Pip needs it for heifers and she overrules Josh. Josh explains he needs space to expand his egg business as it’s the only way to stay afloat. There’s an impasse. They take the problem to Ruth who considers both of their needs as equally important – they just need to find the space. It looks like the only option is to use Hollowtree for the hens – which would mean evicting the Fairbrothers.
