== Plot==
Alicia is nervous as it's her first day working at Home Farm, but she is glad to have Megan on side with sarcastic Nicola around. At the same time, David is worried about telling Alicia about his engagement, but Priya is excited, explaining that her dad will pay for their wedding. At the factory, Priya and David announce their news to the Sharmas, but David is overwhelmed as Georgia points out that he has yet to tell Alicia. Later, David tries to break the news to Alicia, but they are interrupted by Jacob. David and the Sharma family then celebrate the news at the B&B, and Alicia and Jacob are both shocked by it. Alicia tries to put on a brave face, but Jacob is upset and Alicia goes after him. Alicia later tells David that she is happy for him, but Jacob remains angry and David worries as it feels like he's losing his family. Meanwhile, Belle feels hassled about Luke coming for tea, as Lisa is determined to get to know him properly. Belle is nervous as she preps Luke ready for meeting Zak and Sam. Luke says they can go to her room after he has charmed her parents. That evening, after tea, Luke suggests that he and Belle could go and do their 'homework', but Belle is actually relieved when Zak mentions the washing up. Later, Belle and Luke walk to the bus stop and she is worried when he is cool towards her as she apologises for not being able to do the 'history project'. Belle feels under pressure, aware that Luke wants to be alone with her, so she tells him she will have a free house tomorrow. Elsewhere, Sam and Rachel share an intimate moment when he visits her and baby Archie, while Thomas is still brooding and angry with Chas.
