Joe and Matt set about installing the milk tank. Henry promises to help Diana with the furniture and sets about trying to find a carpet cutter. Annie takes a call for Christine at the farmhouse from her father. Dry offers to do Diana's carpet at a cheap price. Annie passes the message on to Christine that her father wants her to call him back at once. Dry sets to work on Diana's carpet.
