Susan is supportive, and Ed is comforted.

Johnny's dreading getting the results of his Maths and English retakes this week. Even after Tom's help, Johnny doubts he has passed. Tom distracts him with some ploughing work. Tom teaches confident Johnny, who gets to measures a furrow.

Neil arrives and questions Tom's choice of field to move the pigs to. Accepting Tom's reasoning, Neil is still put out that he wasn't consulted.

Neil complains to Susan, who tells him he should have stood his ground. He needs to stop complaining and do something about it.

Ed, Emma and Keira watch as the four cows are taken to be sold at Felpersham Market. They're glad that George (who's with Will) isn't there to witness.

Emma confides In Susan that she's worried about Ed's mood. He keeps calling himself a failure. But Susan knows how hard he works. Like Neil, Ed just needs a bit of a push from Emma, who could learn from her mother. 

Ed's pleased to get the expected price for the cows. The hard part now is deciding what to do next. Ed has made an appointment to see a solicitor about dealing with the Estate. Emma offers to postpone the wedding, if it will help things. No way, says Ed. If there's one thing he's sure of, it's that he wants to marry Emma.
