When Tom remarks that Natasha’s brave going to the Tea Room, Natasha explains that although what George did was bad, having a cold war with the Grundys isn’t going to help. The only true villain is Rob Titchener. When Helen appears, Tom congratulates her for showing her face on the farm. He wonders about having George back to work on the farm, as they’re so short-staffed. Otherwise, it feels like it’s just another way that Rob is making things difficult. Helen agrees to think about it.
Emma’s tearful at the Tea Room, and tells Natasha that on top of everything going wrong, the water heater’s now packed up. Emma was shocked when Helen stormed in and tore into George and admits they’ve also been having difficulties with George recently. Natasha counsels that they all need to pull together and then offers to lend a hand at the Tea Room. When Natasha has a few ideas for making the Tea Room more productive, Emma says it would be Fallon’s call. Natasha wonders what employment’s Emma’s had in the past and tells Emma to believe in herself more. Later, Tom and Natasha are stopped in their tracks when they spot a meme of Helen’s outburst that George has posted online. Emma also sees it and tells George that Hannah was right about his attitude to women. He must get it from the influencer he watches online. They’re interrupted by furious Tom hammering at the door. He wonders to Emma whether George enjoys doing Rob’s work for him. He doesn’t want George on the farm ever again.
