Freddie is reminded about second chances.

Freddie is reminded about second chances, and Pat gets an offer.

Loading up veg boxes, Pat tells Tom she doesn’t think they’ve ever sold so many salad crops.  Tom thinks it’s helped by their personalised social media content, including the diary about Nova and Seren.  Tom worries how Pat’s going to cope on her own at the food and music festival. When Tom delivers Joy’s veg box, she notices he looks a bit ragged.  She invites him in for a cuppa and something to eat.  Later Joy tells Pat that Tom had mentioned how under the cosh they all are.  Pat’s relieved when Joy offers to help at the festival.  
At the Orangery Freddie mentions to Chelsea that she seems distracted.  When Adil tells Chelsea that his lunch guest has a nut allergy, Chelsea says she’ll deal with it.  But later Adil complains that his guest has been served a dressing containing hazelnut oil.  Adil’s not impressed and Freddie’s cross with Chelsea.  He tells Chelsea to buck up her ideas; she could’ve killed that customer.  He’s not sure if they can continue to employ her; he’s going to have to talk to Trent about Chelsea’s future.  Later Russ bumps into Chelsea sobbing in the storeroom; it’s all too much for her.  She tells him all about her troubles at home and how she scraped Gemma’s car.  And now she might be fired.  It’s a mess.  Later he asks Freddie to give Chelsea a second chance.  Freddie understands that Chelsea’s having a hard time. He’ll have a think, but it’s up to Trent so he’s not making any promises.
