Alan tells Jakob that Kate turned down his invitation to hold a weekly Spiritual Home session at the church, in support of Peggy’s stance. Jakob can’t believe it after what she said yesterday, but goes to see Usha on Kate’s behalf about borrowing a sari.

At The Stables Lilian quizzes Jakob about the Grange Farm land sale, but he can’t tell her anything. He then asks Lilian if she thinks he’s a kill-joy. Of course not, she replies quickly, before things become awkward and Jakob beats a retreat. Harry Chilcott then introduces himself to Lilian, demanding to see someone about Sadie, the horse he bought for his niece. He considers the horse’s recent injury to be the result of poor decision-making by The Stables. Learning the manager isn’t around, he says he’ll return tomorrow.

Helen looks for a card in the shop that Jack can give Rob. She tells Joy she doesn’t want Jack giving Rob his handmade one in case Rob says something hurtful. When Helen’s phone rings, it’s Miles. He tells her Rob’s deteriorating quickly but has refused a hospice, so now has nurses visiting his flat and Helen needs to bring forward Jack’s visit to tomorrow. Helen’s not sure Jack should see Rob in his condition, but Miles presses her to say yes. Supportive Joy then agrees to go with Helen when she takes Jack to see Rob. Helen is fearful of how Jack will respond to seeing Rob, but Joy thinks if he’s anything like Helen, he’ll brave it out.
