Jakob takes a dim view of having to view Willow Farm as a rental option, but goes along with it. He presents what at first appears to be a negative impression, with Kate attempting valiantly to turn all his downsides into positives. Relieved Kirsty鈥檚 fine with the potential outcome, but Jakob stops her in her tracks by declaring the room ideal. He鈥檒l take it. Kate assures nonplussed Kirsty that Jakob won鈥檛 hide away in his room, but will spend lots of his time downstairs socialising. Isn鈥檛 it wonderful? Kirsty agrees that it is.

It's the final week of Ben鈥檚 nursing course and he鈥檚 struggling to find a job. David asserts he can always come back to farming, but when Ben gets a soaking from a dirty water pipe he鈥檚 not impressed. David gives him an admin task instead, and asks him to gather information on the Grey Gables tug of war team when he goes to the Health Club on Wednesday. Stella arrives to enlist their support with a plan. With Brian away she intends to get the BL harvest in without his knowledge. Will David help her? David has to refuse; Brian is family and he can鈥檛 go against his wishes. Ben wonders if Stella might ask Ruth instead.
