Tom is full of surprises. Meanwhile Darrell refuses to talk.

Worried Elona waits up for Darrell, who comes home looking terrible. Frustrated that he won't talk, she confronts him and he puts it down to a heavy drinking session. Elona doesn't like lying and senses something isn't right.

Hungover Pip is shocked to learn that David found two lambs and their mother dead last night from hypomagnesaemia. He says they'd have been okay if Pip had checked properly in the morning. She clearly had other priorities.

Tom stuns Pat, Tony and Helen by suggesting they sell the herd and buy in organic milk. Tom says he has thought this through. The milking is a massive burden, especially since Tony's heart attack. Tony sees that as an excuse. Henry gets upset as the discussion becomes heated. Tom wants to provide for the future - and his own children. Defensive Pat accuses Tom of never really caring about the cows, as she worries about losing their credibility with customers.

Helen starts to come round to Tom's view, as Tom asks them to consider his proposal. He apologises for upsetting Henry, but Helen's more worried about Pat and Tony. Helen wishes Tom had spoken to her first. She reminds him it's not Tom against the world.
