David’s twitching about the weather. It’s silage making and he needs it to stay dry. Ed flusters him by arriving earlier than expected with the forager, meaning they need to rush to get the clamp lined and ready. It’s all hands on deck! However just as they finish the clamp and Eddie arrives to help with hauling, Ed announces the forager has a blown tyre. It will be another three hours before they can start. When it starts to rain David becomes even more despondent.

Fraught Will’s trying to get Poppy ready for school, multi-tasking so that Mia doesn’t have to. But Mia’s not feeling right and won’t be going to school. She insists she’s fine to be left, but Will arranges for Clarrie to come over. Clarrie tries to coax Mia to talk about what’s really wrong. Mia’s fretting over the money she took. Clarrie assures her it’s all sorted now, but Mia thinks George and Will are still angry with her. Clarrie points out Will’s trying to make things better, but Mia just thinks this means she isn’t allowed to lift a finger any more. She wishes things were like before. Understanding the real issue, Clarrie hugs Mia. Clarrie explains to Will that Mia’s missing her mum. She needs a holiday – proper family time.
