Fallon faces a dilemma, and Vince makes an unexpected statement.
Freddie鈥檚 spotted an opportunity he thinks might appeal to Vince for Casey Meats. It involves working with an academy trust to supply locally sourced produce to schools for their meals. After some persuasion Vince sees the benefits and agrees to Freddie getting the ball rolling, starting with inviting trustees for a tour of the abattoir.
Stressed Fallon鈥檚 struggling on a particularly busy evening at the Bull. Diners Robert and Lynda discuss Ramadan. Robert supports Lynda鈥檚 plan to fast but is taken aback when she assumes he鈥檒l be joining her. Tracy鈥檚 eager to know from Lynda who鈥檚 going to replace Harrison as cricket captain. She reckons she could convince Chris to reconsider, but Lynda declines her offer. Spurred on by Tracy, Freddie shares with Lynda his own tips for what makes a good captain. Vince is impressed 鈥� Freddie should go for the captaincy himself. He鈥檚 a natural at building team morale 鈥� a talented bloke in fact. Freddie鈥檚 touched.
Robert compliments Fallon on her food. He shares that the quality at the Tearoom has suffered since she left. Fallon genuinely worries about how they鈥檙e coping. She doesn鈥檛 like to see the Tearoom losing custom, but is sure Natasha will have a solution. Tracy鈥檚 less sympathetic; Chelsea鈥檚 being made to work silly hours, and Fallon was treated badly by Natasha and Tom. She thinks Fallon should capitalise and open up the Bull earlier for food. Fallon reckons that sounds a bit cut throat, but Tracy retorts she should strike while the iron鈥檚 hot.
