Shula and Elizabeth are feeling the effects of not having the money from the Brookfield sale; neither can pursue their planned projects. But they both agree it's preferable by far to have their brother and his family stay in Ambridge. And Jill looks so much happier. Having family around is worth everything.
With the Am in spate and the flood defences up in Borchester, Adam and David discuss their livestock while Adam helps David to shore up a bank at Brookfield. Adam's sure his sheep will be fine; Beech Copse never floods.
Ruth prepares to set off for Prudhoe with Ben, to give her mum the news that they're staying at Brookfield. She's still angry and snippy with David before she leaves. Jill understands Ruth's predicament and tries to explain to David; it's going to be a big shock for Heather and it all falls on Ruth's shoulders. Pip's also sore at her dad; she accuses him of wanting everything to stay the same.
Jill goes to Carol's full of misgivings about Ruth and Ben travelling in such wicked weather.
As Ruth leaves, she and David argue. They're interrupted by Pip - the pit in the milking parlour is full of water.
