Stella phones Pip to tell her the interview went pretty well, the only awkward moment was when she had to explain why she left her previous post. The job looks fantastic though and she’d love to do it, if it’s offered. Later though, Pip’s surprised when Brian turns up at Rickyard rather than Stella. When Stella gets back soon after she tells Pip she’s been offered the job and has bought champagne to celebrate. But then Brian emerges to offer Stella her job back at Home Farm. He acknowledges he’s been making mistakes recently and knows how damaging they’ve been. But now he’s finally ready to hand over the reins and wants somebody he trusts to manage the farm until one of the family is ready to take over. Brian tells Stella to turn the other job down and come back to Home Farm, where she belongs.

Emma and Amber are at Handale prison, visiting George. Emma doesn’t want to worry George by mentioning Bartleby, when he’ll already be anxious about the potential consequences of shopping Markie. George dismisses those concerns when they see him though and talks about the things he wants to do first when he gets out, including visiting Bartleby. But George soon realises something’s wrong, despite Emma and Amber’s attempts to convince him Bartleby’s okay. Eventually they have to admit he may be put down. George gets very upset, despite Amber’s reassurances that Bartleby looked gorgeous when they saw him. And Emma’s sure he’ll still be there for George when he gets out in two weeks’ time.
