Tom searches for direction, and Rex is torn.

Toby's convinced he's on his final warning with Pip. She's taking the birth plan so seriously, and he's worried that he'll let her down. Rex points out all he has to do is be there to support her - it's not rocket science. Rex is still worrying about the move to Newmarket. He's got the pigs to think about, and his new niece or nephew - he wants to be part of their life. And he's sure Toby still needs his support. Toby asks if Rex loves Anisha - because if the answer is 'yes' Rex needs to follow his heart. Toby's sure he can cope alone.

Lynda's on a mission to find a goalie for the fete, but Freddie, Toby and Rex all turn her down. Freddie reminds Lynda that women's football is very popular, and Lynda prepares to launch a fresh assault. Freddie apologises to Lily about Friday. It was horrible to be threatening one another. Lily suggests that they need to give each other space. 

Tom's worried about the future of Bridge Farm - writing the Nuffield report has made him feel directionless. And Helen's cheese making courses aren't really going anywhere. Tony reminds Tom that they've all made mistakes - and come out stronger as a result. All he needs is hard graft and courage in his convictions.
