Rob enjoys acting as a mentor, and Ed enjoys some hard graft.

Brian's servicing a quad bike to escape from Kate. Justin gives Brian a heads-up: the B.L. Chair is leaving and they want Brian to take over. They also banter about having the Calendar Girls pictures up in their homes.
Ed and Adam discuss getting the covers back on the fruit tunnels. Adam worries they don't have enough workers to do all they have to do. Adam suggests Ed does three brief courses so that he's qualified in everything they need. However, Ed's concerned about going back to "classroom stuff", and funding it all. The Estate can loan him the money, though. Ed asks for a day or two to chew over the offer.
Johnny and Jazzer are working on a pig ark. Johnny has hired Rob for some work at a "petting zoo" event but he's not being paid - it's experience for his course. Tom observes that Rob is very good at getting people to do what he wants. Jazzer recommends that Johnny talks to Tony about his choice of modules. Johnny says he'll talk to Rob too. Tom's unsure, but Johnny believes Rob is full of good advice.
