Russ offers his support, and Joy needs a happy distraction.

Pat and Joy pack Summer Orchard juices ready for the weekend鈥檚 food and drink festival. Pat has some flyers and samples of Helen鈥檚 cheese to take. When Pat asks after Joy鈥檚 daughter Rochelle, Joy admits they鈥檝e fallen out. The letter and photos she鈥檇 sent as an olive branch have gone up in flames with the post box fire. Pat鈥檚 comforting; Joy鈥檚 very much part of the Bridge Farm family.

Russ pops into The Orangery to see how Chelsea is and puts her out of her misery by explaining that after his chat with Freddie last night, Freddie and Trent have agreed to keep Chelsea on. Chelsea鈥檚 delighted and hugs Russ. When Russ warns Chelsea that this is her last chance, Chelsea says she鈥檚 learnt her lesson. He advises her to admit to the police that she was responsible for scraping Gemma鈥檚 car. Chelsea reluctantly agrees but asks if Russ will go with her. At the police station Harrison says Chelsea鈥檚 doing the right thing. When Chelsea鈥檚 out of earshot Russ is keen that Harrison knows Chelsea had nothing to do with the other recent incidences of vandalism in Ambridge. Harrison agrees he鈥檒l keep an eye on Chelsea鈥檚 case to ensure the waters aren鈥檛 muddied. Changing tack, he asks reluctant Russ if he鈥檒l help him practice for the 鈥楤eat the Goalie鈥� stall at the fete. At a kick-about later, Russ passes on to Harrison that Chelsea might get a conditional caution. She made a mistake that she鈥檚 going to put right, and Russ has every faith in her.
