Ed has a crisis of conscience.

Joe talks to Ruth about the Brookfield farm open day. He's happy to help out by bringing the cider press again. Suddenly a swarm of bees flies overhead.

Lynda tells Jill how sad she is that the plinth entries are selected by a computer. She thinks they'll need a more 'visual' idea if they don't get through the first round. Joe comes past, telling Jill about the swarm.

Jill goes straight to Brookfield, enlisting Ruth's help to catch the swarm. Jill's delighted, hoping she has a new colony. Lynda calls round with an idea: Jill could wear her bee suit on the plinth. Jill's not impressed.

Ed calls in on Eddie at the wetland. Lynda drops by, explaining she's happy to help if Eddie needs to 'get rid' of the topsoil! Eddie asks Ed if Oliver's away for the weekend. Ed's immediately suspicious but Eddie's too busy to talk.

Later, Ed sits with Joe in the Bull, and asks about their treasure hunt. While Joe pretends to know nothing, Ed pretends to know everything, so Joe reveals they're going metal detecting, as Eddie arrives. Ed tells them straight - they can't mess things up for him. Eddie says he should forget what he's heard, for the good of the family.
