Brian prepares for the fallout, and Will is worried.

Will can't understand why Mia's decided to quit football. She's also falling behind at school, although he's sure she always does her homework. Jake explains that she's tired - Poppy's started going to her at night instead of Will. Seeing that Jake is worried, Will promises to sort things out. He asks Emma to have a word with Mia about quitting football. 

Ruth goes to Home Farm for a crisis meeting. Jennifer thanks her for all the work she's put in as Ruairi's attorney - nobody thought it would get this complicated. Kate's still in Arizona and wanted the family to postpone the meeting, but the groundwater contamination has been confirmed and there's no time to lose. Brian's concluded that the only way to pay the clean-up bill is to sell 300 acres of core land. Adam brings up the fact that this was all the result of one bad decision by Brian, but Jennifer reminds him that they can only get through this by working together. Brian and Adam identify the most obvious parcels of land to sell, but the last 30 acres will be trickier. Brian points out a likely site, but Adam and Jennifer warn him that it'll be controversial. Brian's sure it's their only option, and offers to take responsibility for any fallout.
