Cancellations are coming through for Robert and Lynda. With fallout from the online comments continuing, they debate whether they should ask their regular guests why they are now cancelling.

Robert reminds her they need the B&B money to supplement their income, before wondering how much Lynda’s funk or malaise has to do with the loss of Monty.

Lily complains that Paul is supposed to be deciding if they want to have a couple of chairs The Bull is throwing out, but he’s not replying to her messages. Harrison points out Paul being unreliable previously, when he didn’t turn up to the tango dance class. Harrison then volunteers to help carry the chairs back to The Stables in Paul’s absence.
Back in the kitchen at The Stables, Lily asks Harrison what he thinks of the chairs in their new home. It becomes clear that Paul forgot. Lily rants a little about her housemates before offering Harrison a cocktail. Lily says she would like him to stay.

Lily decides to join Paul at the cinema. She’ll see Harrison around.
At Meadow Farm, George wants Esme to hear him out. He wasn’t trying to rip her off. He panicked as he knew he and Amber would need the extra money ahead of her maternity leave. Esme angrily asks him not to spin the truth. Esme is working another job to pay for George’s sick pay, and Eddie’s cover, can George not grasp how wrong all this is? He disagrees – financially he’s barely keeping his head above water. Esme won’t sack him, but with some conditions. George will receive no further sick pay, and when he returns it will be basic milking hours, he’ll start from the bottom. The farm isn’t doing well and George should be grateful she’s supporting him. George responds that he doesn’t need her charity, and she can stick her job. He’ll take the permanent car sales job and won’t come to a job which feels like a favour.
