Ruth is getting rattled and Darrell does a good turn.

Lilian surprises Adam with a present of pampering products. They discuss the protest at the farmer's market last week. Lilian suggests that Jennifer was shaken by the confrontation and is nervous about the next one. Adam felt it was fine. He had a good chat with the protestors, and agrees with most of what they said. Lilian can sense he's feeling sorry for himself. She hopes the welcome party for the pickers will help him get his mojo back. 
Matt compliments Darrell on the quality of his workmanship and his keen attitude. After Darrell does a bit of work in the office, Matt rewards him with a cash bonus. 
Ruth finds Ben having a nightmare, and comforts him with assurances that nothing else bad is going to happen. 
Later, Ruth tells David that Josh saw the police arrive to check on security for Open Farm Sunday. He questioned her, so Ruth was forced to explain the threats. The police still want them to cancel the event, and Ruth now feels the same way. David doesn't want the children to be affected but still wants to go ahead. He wants them to grow up knowing their parents aren't scared of standing up to bullies.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
