Rex finds himself at a crossroads and Phoebe tries to get her point across.

Phoebe fills Rex in on their proposal; she鈥檚 been up half the night, but she thinks she鈥檚 cracked it. They need to get Pip on board. At Rosie鈥檚 first birthday party, Pip quizzes Rex and Phoebe about why they鈥檝e been spending so much time together. Phoebe explains they鈥檝e been working on a bid for Peggy鈥檚 trust together. Phoebe tries to engage Pip in rewilding, the idea behind their bid. Their proposal is to return parts of Ambridge back to nature. Pip isn鈥檛 convinced; Peggy鈥檚 looking for ways of making farming more sustainable, not getting rid of it all together. Besides, Brookfield already have their own bid. Pip says she鈥檒l have a look at the research, but she鈥檚 not making any promises. They鈥檙e interrupted when Toby arrives with Rosie鈥檚 birthday surprise: a unicorn.
Rex tells Toby that Tom wants him to rear pork meat for Bridge Farm. He wants to be cautious, though, he鈥檚 never reared pigs to slaughter weight before. Toby thinks Rex just needs to make it happen. He has faith in him, but it won鈥檛 make any difference unless Rex has faith in himself.
Shula tells Elizabeth of her plans to become a vicar. Elizabeth thinks she鈥檇 be a fantastic vicar and promises not to tell anyone of Shula鈥檚 plans. It was Freddie who gave her the idea, and suddenly, after months of feeling directionless, she knew what she had to do.
