Jim is forced to eat humble pie, and there鈥檚 a blast from the past for Eddie.

Faith bumps into Jazzer as he takes Jim鈥檚 old airbed over to Brookfield to help with their 鈥榖ig barn sleepover鈥. Faith is so grateful for the community support, and Jazzer makes no secret of how relieved Jakob will be to have his home back.
Eddie鈥檚 visiting Joe鈥檚 grave, and chats to his old Dad. Visiting the churchyard also is Faith. They bump into one another and Faith remembers him from her childhood. She jokingly reminds Eddie of when they got 鈥渕arried鈥 when they were five or six years old. It has been more than sixty years, but Eddie hasn鈥檛 changed at all.
Over a drink at the Bull, they catch up and share their life stories. Eddie lies, making himself out to be in the antiques business with Clarrie. Faith鈥檚 delighted to accept his invitation to come over with Chuck tomorrow and try some home-made cider.
A stranger arrives at Greenacres, and startled Jim takes immediate action to make a citizen鈥檚 arrest. The stranger had let himself in thinking he鈥檇 booked into Jim鈥檚 bungalow. Jazzer arrives and points out that this guy isn鈥檛 a scammer but rather has himself been scammed. With this clarified, apologetic Jim shares a drink and gets to know Joel. Having been contained by Jim in the living room, Joel admits he enjoyed looking at Jim鈥檚 impressive library. Joel is an archaeologist and connects with Jim over his Classical literature. Joel resigns himself to going home, but Jazzer has another idea, mentioning the Brookfield Barn. Joel鈥檚 happy; he feels he鈥檚 found a kindred spirit in Jim.
