Ambridge says farewell to a friend, and Helen attempts to keep the peace.

At the Rewilding site, people gather on a beautiful day for Carol Tregorran’s send off. Fallon makes a fond joke about Carol. Jolene’s pleased to see her daughter laughing again, especially after seeing Harrison apparently move on so fast, with Lily. Fallon needs a blank canvas and Jolene suggests legal advice about Woodbine cottage.
Fallon comforts emotional Anna, who’s ignoring calls from Alan. Anna is convinced Alan absolutely knew Carol’s money was in his bank account all along.

Meanwhile, anxious Alan is at home fretting about what to do, but tentatively arrives at the event, ready to speak only if called forward. As he starts his planned eulogy, Anna takes exception and orders him away, causing an emotional scene as Helen tries to mediate. Things escalate as Anna challenges Alan over abusing his position. The celebrant calmly encourages everyone to make their way to The Bull.

Back at home, Usha remembers that Carol got Alan’s bank details to transfer money for flowers, shortly before the large transaction. Alan feels vindicated, but Usha warns him to tread carefully - he should be upfront and speak to the Bishop before Anna puts in a formal complaint.
At a quiet Bull, Fallon and Jolene wonder what that was all about. They can’t find Anna and start to worry. Helen catches up to Anna in the woodland – Anna talks about Alan’s influence over Carol, convinced that she let Alan become a threat to Carol, enabling it.
