Brian meets up with the supermarket buyer who has approached him about Tom's sausages. In a robust discussion, Gareth insists on a low selling price, telling Brian that the increased sales will mean that their profits remain secure despite the small margin.

Brian goes back to Home Farm still keen to take up the offer, but Jennifer is extremely worried that he is doing all this behind Tom's back. Brian's going to do a bit more research, but he's sure they can still make a decent profit. Jennifer says it's not her he's got to convince, it's Tom.

Alan and Usha finally let Blossom Hill Cottage to a couple about to marry. Usha goes out for a run and Alan arranges to meet her half way.

Shula has a lot of thinking to do, and goes out for a long ride. She is worried about the stables, and has realised that she is going to have to cut hours for some of the staff. She's not helped when she meets up with Alan and Usha. Usha is polite and civil, but it's still uncomfortable. Later, Alistair tries to console her.
