There鈥檚 a sad goodbye in Ambridge and Jolene offers an olive branch.

Roy hasn鈥檛 heard from Adil about the job at Grey Gables. He tells Kirsty he thinks he won鈥檛 be offered it and imagines Adil doesn鈥檛 want him. Their conversation stops when Tracy appears, followed a while later by Jolene with donations of food from Fallon for the staff party. As the event gets into full swing Roy introduces the surprise farewell tribute to Kathy, presenting her with a memory book. Quietly Kirsty and Tracy reminisce fondly about their years at Grey Gables. Tracy doesn鈥檛 know what she鈥檒l do without it. This party feels like a funeral. She鈥檚 lost a good friend in Oliver and it hurts.
Meanwhile Roy takes Kathy through a host of memories, Grey Gables and otherwise, including the time when Joe Grundy was in residence at the hotel and chaos ensued. Roy praises Kathy鈥檚 calm control over the years, and Kathy thanks him, in turn hailing the resilience of the staff.
Later Kathy and Jolene chat. Kathy apologises for being distant at Elizabeth鈥檚 party. She thanks Jolene for digging out the old photos of her for her memory book. They agree to forgive and forget the past, and bid each other a fond farewell.
Kathy, Roy and Kirsty agree it鈥檚 been a sad day. Grey Gables may be empty but it鈥檚 full of ghosts. As they close the door for the final time, it鈥檚 the end of an era.
