Tension mounts at Home Farm and Phoebe faces a crisis.

Phoebe鈥檚 ready to welcome the first wild camping visitors. Roy visits her in the converted shepherd鈥檚 hut they鈥檝e set up as a reception office, and wishes her luck. Phoebe鈥檚 irritated with his excessive attention but Rex feels she鈥檚 lucky he takes an interest. Rex thinks the site gives off a good vibe. All鈥檚 well until they realise neither of them have taken delivery of the solar lights for the compost loos; the company can鈥檛 come back with them until tomorrow. They鈥檙e stumped until Rex suggests asking Roy for help. Sure enough Roy comes up with a contact who can lend them a solar generator and some LEDs. Phoebe really appreciates her dad鈥檚 help. The two of them have a father daughter moment.
The atmosphere between Brian and Adam is arctic. Adam attempts a half-hearted apology for his misdemeanour, but Brian鈥檚 unimpressed. Later Adam informs Brian he鈥檚 paid the borrowed money back into the farm account. Now that鈥檚 he鈥檚 apologised he queries Brian鈥檚 own behaviour. Brian in turn says he鈥檒l forgive but not forget. The two lock horns again, Adam insisting there should be nothing to forgive and Brian continuing to blame Adam for helping himself to money without telling anyone. Adam accuses Brian of favouring his other siblings and not listening to him. Brian asserts he does listen 鈥� he鈥檚 just not sure he can always believe him. Adam鈥檚 sick of being where he鈥檚 not wanted. Brian suggests he leaves in that case. In this time of difficulty, he needs a farm manager he can rely on, and that鈥檚 not Adam.
