Marnie and Romeo try to convince James to put everything aside for one day to focus on Harry's funeral. He refuses as he thinks people still think people killed Harry. He goes to the police station for a soil sample. Mercedes tries to comfort Diane, who thinks it's the wrong time to have the funeral. Romeo takes Juliet to the station after James.
Juliet explodes at James, but her words seem to have an effect. Grace leaves Liam an angry voicemail, demanding to know where he has been all night.

Ste races over to find the hearse and bursts into tears. Diane is furious to see Ste. Ste wants to go to the funeral, but Edward and Diane ask him to leave and Jonny and Stuart try to restrain him. Grace finds Liam, nursing a hangover, in The Loft. Grace tells Liam that she knows that he put her in a wheelchair and now she will put him in a bodybag. She angrily confronts him with everything that she knows. Liam says it wasn't his fault - Mercedes was driving the car. Liam didn't know it was Grace, and everything fell apart when he discovered it was Grace. He wanted to tell the truth but Mercedes wanted him to keep everything quiet. He urges her to hate Mercedes, not him. She asks why she should believe him, he tells her that he has evidence. Harry's funeral begins, and James walks in, with Juliet and Romeo having convinced him to come. Diane is upset as she wanted Tony to turn up to the funeral, knowing that Luke had seen him in the village. Edward comforts her.
Tony asks Breda about the funeral, she refuses to let him go.

Diane receives a call from Scott, informing her that his scan is clear. Diane is touched when Edward offers to pay the bar tab for Harry's wake. Cleo texts Mercedes, informing her that she's going to live with Porsche. Joel is also shocked.
Breda pretends not to know who Harry is, or that it's his funeral. Mitchell bumps into Cleo and she reminds him that she was in the same situation with Harry. She tells him that life is too short to live a lie and to deny happiness. She says that she loved him too much to be just friends and leaves. Grace makes a speech at Harry's wake, playing the voicemail on Harry's phone. Everyone is horrified to hear Mercedes confess to the hit-and-run.
