Helen presses Tom on a list of things he said he would do for their open day tomorrow. He asks if her anger is really about the twins鈥� modelling job but Helen doesn鈥檛 think there鈥檚 anything else to say. George is helping out with preparations too, and suggests making a film with Tom talking about organic growing that visitors can watch in his absence. George has big ideas for it. They get some of it done and then start recording in the packing shed. George gets annoyed when Helen interrupts them. Tom sends George off to get more general shots. Helen and Tom talk again about the modelling job. Helen hates that they鈥檙e taking it; she thinks it鈥檚 hypocritical. She makes it clear that she won鈥檛 be telling their parents about it. It鈥檚 not her place 鈥� this is Tom鈥檚 mess.
