Natalie has no faith in British justice anymore. Steve hides away from Jez and tells Jim he's going to get away from Weatherfield. Jim begs him not to run away as he can't face losing him. Dev advertises for an assistant. Doreen Horton tries to take Tommy from the Duckworths but Vera refuses to let her have him and Jack throws her out. Natalie makes Steve see that the police will be keeping a close eye on Jez and there's no need for him to run away. He agrees to stay in Weatherfield.
