Alice persuades Brian to go for a walk to blow away the cobwebs. Brian wonders how Ruairi is since their row as he’s not answering Brian’s texts. Alice fields the question by saying that Ruairi’s finding his way through his grief and the whole family are in limbo about arrangements for Jennifer’s funeral. When Alice tries to pin down a time with Brian to discuss the funeral, he brushes it off saying he’ll think about it.

Kate’s keen to put Spiritual Home behind her and instead focus on environmental ideas to make ‘Home Farm net zero’. Jakob cautions her to slow down and wait until after the funeral before making any life-changing decisions. As Kate prepares to go out, she’s perplexed when Jakob seems to be stalling her and insists that she answers the door when the doorbell rings. Kate’s delighted when it’s Noluthando. She had no idea Jakob had cooked this up secretly with Noluthando to surprise Kate.

Kirsty and Roy sort out Phoebe’s room, ready to turn it into an office. They notice that Brian’s garden could do with some work now that Jennifer’s no longer around. They chat about how Brian’s doing and wonder what they could do to help him. Later, having liaised with Alice, they tidy up Brian’s garden ready to surprise him when he gets back. However, Brian comes home unexpectedly demanding to know what they’re doing. When Roy explains they’d run the idea past Alice first, Brian angrily says he can make his own decisions and asks them to leave.
