Matt says that when he and Zach sat down, they were on different sides of the matter. According to Zach, Matt is seeking a position where he can have control, where he can dictate terms, and that he has always dictated terms for a long time. The negotiations regarding the north side of the farm quickly fall apart.
Matt also mentions that Zach came in really hot and didn't come to negotiate but to demand.

Caryn mentions that they went from seeing the kids every day to them not coming to the farm. She said that she and Matt feel bad and confused.
Later, Zach and Tori arrive with their children at the farm to tell Matt and Caryn that they would be moving to the battleground.

Both Zach and Tori are speechless when it comes to telling Matt and Caryn that they are leaving. So Zach devises a new strategy, instructing his son Jackson to tell his grandfather that they are leaving for the battleground. Matt and Caryn are both stunned as soon as Jackson utters the words out of his mouth in front of everyone. Are Zach and Tori truly leaving the farm or will something miraculous happen to stop them from going? The teaser undoubtedly enthuses the viewers about the forthcoming season.
