All Creatures Great and Small Season 6 is currently streaming on PBS Masterpiece in the U.S.

The latest episode, titled Jenny Wren delves into several subplots. For instance, Jenny receives her college acceptance letter, Helen fears for her little sister making the big move, and Siegfried panics when he learns about Mrs. Hall leaving for Suderland. But the subplot that stood out was Tristan and Charlotte's.

Previously, on All Creatures Great and Small Season 6, we saw how Tristan and Charlotte grew closer. They even slow danced at the stable and kissed. In this episode, Charlotte invites Tristan to the Beauvoirs croquet lunch.

Tristan asks Charlotte whether her father, General Beauvoir, approves of him as a guest, to which Charlotte makes it clear that she does not need his approval. Tristan's aware of their social class difference. Charlotte's an aristocrat, and he's not. What stands out in the episode is how Tristan takes a stand for himself and his profession during the croquet lunch.

Keep reading for the detailed recap and how Tristan took a stand for himself.


All Creatures Great and Small Season 6 Episode 4: Tristan's quiet stand at Beauvoir's lunch steals the spotlight

When Tristan greets General Beauvoir at the croquet lunch, he mocks him for being overdressed for the stable. Charlotte takes a stand for him and tells her father that Tristan is her guest and is not there to treat Philbrick, her horse. It appears that General Beauvoir clearly has a problem with Tristan's relationship with his daughter, Charlotte. He introduces Lord Neville Gladwin to them, and he boasts about how much land he owns.

Lord Neville also mocks Tristan's profession and says,

"Vet is it. Spend a lot of time with your arm up the cow's backside I shouldn't wonder. Remind me not to shake hands with you."

Tristan laughs at the shrewd comments. He tries to be respectful throughout. He even tries to engage in conversation, but he is made to feel like an outcast. Not to forget, Tristan made an effort in learning croquet. Mrs. Hall helped him play a makeshift croquet game so that he wouldn't embarrass himself or Charlotte in front of the guests. General Beauvoir invited him for a game of billiards, and even though he had no idea about it, he took it sportingly.

But General Beauvoir didn't leave any chance to tell him that he does not belong there. When Tristan couldn't take the disrespect anymore, he said,

"I am sorry General. I don't know much about Croquet, or opera or where the red ball is supposed to go. But I do know about sticking my hand up a cow's backside. The fee sir for saving Charlotte's horse."

Tristan then walks out after handing over the fee receipt to General Beauvoir.

In the end, Tristan apologizes to Charlotte for walking out. However, Charlotte says that he has done no wrong. Tristan feels that he has lost his last chance to win General Beauvoir's heart.

Soon, General Beauvoir arrives with the fee. He tells Tristan that once he wanted the world for Charlotte, but now he wants her home and happy. And it goes without saying that Tristan makes Charlotte the happiest. Before leaving, General Beauvoir tells Tristan to teach him bar billiards the next time they meet. At last, it appears that General Beauvoir has approved of Tristan.
