Helen wants to be alone, and Pip has a deal to make.

Pat is trying to be patient about the Henry situation. Helen still refuses to see her. David says Ruth has sent Helen a couple of letters. Pip goes to view some crossbreds belonging to a friend's dad. She reports back that the cattle were nice looking animals and she drove a hard bargain with Ashley's dad. She's buying them! David wants to see the photos she took and the facts and figures before he and Ruth decide whether to lend her the money she needs. Rex picks Pip's brains about a brand name for the eggs. He proposes "Upper Class Eggs: Laid by Landed Poultry". Pip thinks it's genius. David confirms they will provide Pip a loan for the cattle. Pip's first thought is to ring Matthew with the good news, leaving Rex deflated.
Helen still isn't saying much. It will be hard to prepare a proper defence when she's not giving Anna all the details. Pat absolutely believes her daughter acted in self-defence. Anna thinks Helen partly blames herself. She must be terrified of facing Rob, and is dealing with a whole mix of emotions. Pat can't think Helen will consider pleading guilty. She's frustrated that she can't speak to her. Anna suggests she keeps writing to Helen. Later, Anna tells Helen about Henry living back at Blossom Hill Cottage. Helen despairs, but Anna continues to press her. Anna says it's not too late, but Helen cries that it is, that she has lost Henry for good.
