Amber and George are tucking into a chippy dinner as Amber states they’re celebrating George’s first week at Gordons. George managed to make a sale, Amber argues she would count the sale to Martyn Gibson bringing him up to two sales. George questions why he’s so determined to work in farming when there are easier careers. Horrified Amber says farming is part of George and she doesn’t want him to lose that. George insists it was just a thought and that Bartleby would haunt him if really gave it up.

Khalil spooks Keira by following her as she walks Holly. Khalil says she’s trespassing and shouldn’t be walking Holly there; Keira corrects him that this land is Oliver’s and she has permission. Khalil says he’s trying to protect the sheep at Grange Farm. Keira asks if he wants to talk about the attack. She points out the signs warning dog walkers and says it’s not Khalil’s job to protect the sheep. They spot someone walking their dog where they shouldn’t be and realise it’s Justin. Khalil takes a picture and posts it online to publicly shame Justin.

Robert and Lynda are now doubting their do-nothing response to their horrible guest’s online comments. Robert finds an old tennis ball with a date written on it. Lynda realises it is the first ball she ever threw Monty but presumed the ball was destroyed. Lynda’s phone rings and it’s Harrison saying they’ve found a nice home for Monty, much to the bittersweet relief of the Snells.
