Episode 8204 (2nd September 2013)

Plot
Roy is delayed getting to the hospital before Hayley's operation but it is postponed until after lunch. Karl sees Craig upset and gives him money to buy a Wii game from Barlow's Buys. Chesney asks Sinead for a coffee. She thinks he's still after Katy as she saw him warning the lads off but he says he'd have done the same for any girl in trouble. She agrees to the coffee. Hayley tries to keep her mind off the operation. The factory girls wait anxiously for news. Kirk sees Craig coming out of the cash converters and tells Beth he's skiving off from school. Dev doesn't think Karl was serious about his threat to Jason and tells Jason to count him out until he has proof that Karl was behind the fire. Roy and Hayley part company as Hayley is taken to the operating theatre. Roy expects to wait at least six hours if the operation is successful. Sally is reminded of her breast cancer battle. Michelle doesn't like Peter muscling in at the factory. Beth tackles Craig about his skiving and accuses him of stealing the Wii game. He says Karl gave him the money. Sinead shows up late at her date with Chesney. He says he misses her and asks for another chance as he knows what he wants now but she asks for time to think about it. Beth asks Stella how much the game was worth so she can repay her. Jason sees the exchange and points out to Dev how weird it is that Karl is suddenly friendly with Craig. Roy is shocked when the consultant sees him two hours early.
