As Diane and Louise discuss plans to celebrate their new partnership at The Woolpack, Ray is planning a celebration of his own. After dropping in on Louise at the pub, he stuns her by pulling out a ring and proposing to her. Unsure of her feelings for Ray, Louise finds it difficult to accept the unexpected offer and makes it clear that she thinks it may be too soon for them to be thinking of marriage. And when Ray mentions the pub sale and the money he gave her, it's clear that Louise feels she is being bought. At a time when Tricia and Marlon think everything in the garden is rosy, they are brought back down to earth with a devastating bump when Mack and Syd break the news to them that Edith has died.
