==Plot==
Rhona thinks she and Paddy should attend Tess' funeral but Paddy is adamant they should let her family grieve. Belle insists Lisa's party should go ahead, even thought it is not a surprise anymore. Lisa realises her birthday the following day is a fresh start and heads into town. Brenda wonders why the police would be looking for Kirin. Nikhil receives a call from Canada as his extended leave is up and he needs to head back to discuss his options. He confides in David about his doubts over what Leyla wants. Paddy is short with James when he questions his diagnosis of milk fever in a cow at Butler's Farm. Lisa invites Zak and Joanie to her party. Doug gives Gabby chores around the pub as punishment for drinking. Nikhil explains to Leyla that he needs to go back to Canada. Paddy attends Tess' funeral but he is shocked to see Megan arrive for the service. Rhona wonders where Paddy is as he has not attended his calls and James asks for a second opinion on the cow Paddy looked at earlier. Preparations for Lisa's party are underway. Ashley nearly slips the pregnancy news to Doug but Laurel covers that they are thinking about getting remarried, to Ashley's surprise. Paddy is teary as Pierce breaks down whilst talking about his final memories of Tess. David assures Leyla that Nikhil is head over heals for her, but explains Nikhil is unsure where they stand. Paddy watches on as Tess' coffin is buried. Zak and Joanie receive a frosty reception when they arrive at Lisa's birthday. Megan watches on as Paddy cries at Tess' grave. Laurel tells Ashley they will just tell Doug they have changed their minds about the wedding but Ashley explains he wants to get remarried. Leyla proposes to Nikhil in the middle of the café, which he accepts, and Laurel also reveals she and Ashley have gotten engaged too. Lisa informs Zak that she is divorcing him just as the lights go out and she is presented with a birthday cake.
