Brian faces some competition for the contract to farm the Estate land. He asks Annabelle for her support but is confident the nearness of Home Farm will give them the edge in the boardroom. He asks Adam for a log of examples of when they've effectively solved problems. Adam is dismayed that Brian has gone to Debbie with the issue first. He doesn't like being side-lined for the decision process.
Emma makes an anonymous call to Crimestoppers. She says they need to investigate Keith about the Brookfield fire.
Later, Emma tells Susan the heat from the fire was so intense that the patio table and George's toys have been charred. Their chat is interrupted when Tracy bursts in with news that Keith has been taken in for questioning by the police. Susan and Tracy assume the police are victimising Keith due to his being a Horrobin. Emma rationalises that the police will release Keith if he didn't commit the crime. Adamant that their brother is innocent, Tracy and Susan do not like her use of the word 'if'.
By lunchtime, Keith is free and protesting his innocence, but his family are still wondering who made that anonymous tip.
