Something is preying on Clarrie's mind. Meanwhile Shula plays truant.

Ruth and David discuss Pip's dedication to her exams. David's also busy, with the NFU and preparing for a couple of days' work at Lower Loxley. He's optimistic that if the weather holds he can start silaging in a week or so as well. 

Shula sympathises with Caroline, who's coping with the damage from the water leak. It's the worst start to her first week without Roy. Oliver's also busy preparing the puppy show, for which Shula agrees to do the catering. 

Clarrie's annoyed that Eddie's forgotten to give her a lift back from Bridge Farm, so tells him to get a wriggle on. She's also annoyed by Eddie's drunken performance last night, falling asleep and snoring during the serving of the cake. Clarrie admits that what's really on her mind is Will and Nic. Something's not right there. 

Shula and Ruth discuss Pip's new boyfriend Spencer, and also how relaxed David seems. Although Shula's initially concerned by David being away helping Elizabeth at this busy time, she and Ruth agree that he seems happier. Ruth thinks his chat with Alistair must have done him the power of good.
