Elizabeth braces herself for the truth and Jill loses her temper

David and Ruth start setting up for Open Farm Sunday. They haven’t advertised much this year so it should be a quiet one. Bridge Farm’s set up looks great, Natasha’s put a lot of work in.

Shula tells Jill about her difficulties with the art committee. She’ll have to cancel this week’s meeting because Lynda and Russ can’t make it and Leonard’s quit. Talk turns to Lower Loxley, and David says it’s no wonder they’re struggling with Kenton at the helm. Jill snaps. Kenton has paid his debts to David. Now, it’s time to move on.
Liberty’s lunch for the family is a success, Jill even approved of her pastry. Jill tells Ruth and David that she won’t be able to make the teas for Open Farm Sunday, as she and Leonard are going out for lunch instead. Ruth says it’ll be fine; Ben can help with the teas and Liberty can lend a hand too.

Elizabeth confronts Kenton about the financial situation at Lower Loxley. Losing the alcohol licence has been disastrous, despite Kenton and Glen’s hard work to keep the business afloat. It’s time to get the alcohol licence back. Elizabeth decides it’s time to take some responsibility. She’ll meet with her solicitor first thing in the morning.
