Jim reveals a painful secret, and Ed has a proposition.
In the shop Helen gets flustered about mislaying her bank card, then accidentally smashes a jar of mayonnaise. Helen cuts herself picking up the glass, so Jim invites her to sit down for tea and biscuits, sensing how discombobulated she is. Helen tells Jim how she feels worse since seeing Miles yesterday. She still can鈥檛 quite believe Rob is dead. Jim tells her about his experience going to the funeral of his abuser, Harold Jayston. Although he couldn鈥檛 bring himself to go inside the church it still helped, by providing an ending of sorts, knowing he could never come across the man again. Helen admits she鈥檚 ridiculously tired, thoughts constantly whirring, having disturbing dreams about Rob. Jim reassures, it will get easier over time. For him, in the end, the abuser hasn鈥檛 defined his life because he鈥檚 only a small part of it. Jim thinks it will be the same for her and that Helen will start to thrive from now on. Helen agrees, maybe she will.
Stella teases Brian about the expensive watch his family have given him. Brian is very pleased with it and proud of his family. They talk about what they could do with the Grange Farm land, if their bid is successful. Ed then collars them to make the case for grazing his Texels at 91热爆 Farm. Stella鈥檚 initial response is to turn Ed down, but Brian persuades her that they could at least think about it.
