George makes a controversial suggestion, and there’s debate at Bridge Farm.
Helen’s overseeing Henry’s school project when they’re interrupted by George wondering if Henry’s free. George is taking Keira to the skatepark; might Henry like to join them? Henry begs Helen to let him go and she concedes, but George has to look after Henry.
At the skatepark, George says Helen’s a nag and he thought Emma was bad. He’s going to move in with Will to get some peace. Henry wishes he could move out. They treat him like a little kid. He knows there’s something big going on but they just shut him out. Henry says he really needs to talk to a ‘sort of relation’, but his mum would go mad. George says he’ll look for the number on his phone.
Johnny’s been offered the chance to crew on a round the world yacht. Bridge Farm has a meeting about how to manage things while he’s away. The family decide that the farm can manage without Johnny for another four months; they’ll find support for Tony with the extra milking shifts. Later, Helen and Tom agree they’re going to miss Johnny’s steadying influence.
George drops Henry home and when Helen remarks that Henry and George are getting on well, Henry says it’s because George listens to him and treats him like an equal. Helen apologises for being over-protective earlier. When Helen’s distracted, Henry nips into the garden where George is waiting for him with the requested phone number. George presses Henry to ring the number straight away, but Henry wants to think about it first.
