Andi and Miquita Oliver's journey straddles the urban-rural divide of Northeast Scotland. In Aberdeenshire, they visit Grace Noble and her daughter Beth at Aberdeenshire Highland Beef, exploring sustainable cattle farming and Scotland's agricultural heritage. This encounter with the region's pastoral traditions prompts Miquita to reflect deeply on her own mixed Caribbean and Scottish heritage during a solitary walk through the farm's fields.


The expedition then shifts back to Aberdeen's city centre, where Andi meets poet Mae Diansangu at the Aberdeen Pavilion. Their conversation delves into the Doric dialect, showcasing how this distinctive form of Scots finds new expression through contemporary poetry.
