As Kirsty and Rex sadly discuss plans for winding down Rewilding Ambridge, Justin barges in brandishing a contract which needs their signature. When Rex says he’s not jumping to Justin’s command, Kirsty stops him - she can’t believe what she’s reading. Justin confirms that it’s a contract for the lease of BL land at a peppercorn rent. They just need to sign it. Justin’s there to save the day! Rex and Kirsty celebrate later at The Bull but can’t get over Justin’s about-turn. As they raise a toast, Lilian says they should spread the word that Justin has a heart as warm as anyone in Ambridge. Justin’s frustrated when he can no longer get into the rewilding website. Lilian’s delighted by his rewilding decision, but says that everyone else thinks Justin must have an ulterior motive. Justin confirms he simply did it to help Kirsty and Rex – it’s a cause that he now sees is important. Fallon heads off to sign her EV Charging Station contract. Emma appears explaining that she needed to see Fallon to wish her well, producing a gift of a miniature bonsai tree. The one a Tearoom customer gave to Emma when she started up the tree surgery business. Fallon confesses she’s feeling nervous about it all, but Emma reckons the new café is the perfect thing for Fallon to do. But later Fallon tells Harrison she hasn’t signed the contract – they offered her an even smaller space and she’s not sure it’s going to work. She has a few days to make the decision. What is she going to do?
