==Plot==
Liv demands Paul unlock the door and leave. Paul refuses and makes it clear to Liv that telling Mandy the truth isn't an option. Manpreet is disgusted Meena would choose to entertain David rather than attend the family lunch. Cain explains to Moira that he wants to get close to her again, but when they get close, he can't stop thinking about her and Nate. Moira worries this will start to infect the rest of their relationship so tearfully tells Cain he needs to figure out if he can get past this. With the rest of the family still having not made an appearance, an excited Rishi announces to Priya and Al that he's going to pay for their wedding using his pension. Al is adamant they cannot use Rishi's pension money but soon realises he can't say no when Priya brings up Rishi's health issues. Mandy is on cloud nine as she and Vinny head off to the ice-rink. Jai finally turns up at the Hide and is far from happy to learn Rishi intends to use his pension pot to pay for Priya and Al's wedding. As Paul tries to persuade Liv to get Vinny onside, Liv begins to feel unwell and suddenly begins fitting. When Liv comes around, Paul explains she had a seizure. Liv realises this probably means she has epilepsy and beings to cry as she believes having epilepsy will mean her life is over. Paul tells Liv about his first seizures at aged thirteen which soon leads him into talking about his abusive father. Jai wonders why the rest of the Sharmas can't see Al is a manipulative user who's only after the family money. Priya reminds Jai that all their money is tied up in property and business whilst Al protests he's with Priya because he loves her then refuses to take Rishi's money again, citing that it'll tear the family apart. Paul tells Liv how he grew out of his seizures. Liv hopes she'll grow out of her seizures too. She thanks Paul for looking after her earlier before revealing she's an alcoholic. She explains her family got her through her addiction so tells Paul he can also beat his addiction with Mandy's help. Moira returns to the farmhouse to find Cain listening to an old mix-tape he made her. When Moira comments that if only life had a rewind button, Cain insists they don't need one because he's determined to work through things as he's miserable without her. Cain suggests they have a romantic evening and promises Moira he'll try hard to get past this. Back at Wishing Well Cottage, a tipsy Mandy asks Vinny how things are with Liv. Vinny states he thinks Liv is the one. Meanwhile at the Mill, Liv encourages Paul to talk to Mandy about his addiction but he isn't keen. As Paul goes to leave, he reminds Liv to make an appointment with her doctor but Liv doesn't intend to as a diagnosis of epilepsy will stop her doing so much. Paul insists she doesn't have much choice. Liv states she does as only they know about her latest seizure. Paul doesn't think he can keep it quiet but Liv warns him if he blows her secret, she'll blow his.
