Susan loses patience, and Tony makes progress.

Tony's triumphant on his crutches, but Pat worries when he tells her he's thinking about buying another bull. Tony understands why Pat had to send Otto to be destroyed. He remembers why he bought Otto. It's not too late to start again, surely?

Susan believes Justin Elliott's rumoured development scheme might help young people. Ed is really struggling to keep going. Carol sympathizes.

Carol asks Jill if perhaps an Archer might want to take on Mike's milk round

Susan asks Neil to pick up the children. Neil can't. He has to move some pigs at Bridge Farm. Susan's not happy

Meanwhile, Johnny helps Tom to move the pigs. As they finish, Neil arrives. Bemused Neil points out that he was on his way to do the job himself. Tom is sorry but it couldn't wait. And they're running out of pasture. Interrupting as Neil starts to suggest a plan, Tom announces his own suggestion along similar lines. Great minds think alike, trumpets Tom.

Neil grumbles to Susan that Tom seems to have forgotten who's manager. Not for the first time, Susan urges him to stand up for his rights and not be a doormat. All right, says Neil. He won't let Tom or anyone else push him around.
