David Troughton (Tony Archer)

I just... I don't see how going to see Debbie by yourself is going to help.

Surely the first thing we all need to do is convince Dad to see a doctor.

Possibly.

The trouble is, his mental state, or however you want to put it, has a direct impact on the farm.

As long as he's still trying to be in charge of everything, reversing decisions, refusing to listen to common sense, it's about more than his health.

All right.

I just need to get away for a few days, try to get some clarity so I can do what's best for the farm.

And I get that.

I promise I'm not going to make any big decisions behind your back.

That's why I wanted to check with you first.

After all, you have a financial stake in the farm too.

That's not what I was thinking.

I know you wouldn't do that.

Good.

Because I've already had a long chat with Kate and she's okay with it.

Why?

And what about Rory?

Look, I mean, if me and Kate know where you're going, we ought to tell him too.

No, I know.

The trouble is, I'm afraid he'd tell Brian when I've tried to discuss my concerns before.
