Plot
Tracy decides it’s time to up the ante and with Charlie out of the way she sets about her next game. She unscrews the bedroom door handle, tosses it into the hallway then locks her and Amy inside before shouting for help. Claire’s quick to come running and when Tracy pleads with her not to tell anyone Claire’s more convinced than ever that Charlie is up to no good. Now fearing the worst she reveals all to Deirdre and as the pair unite in their concern for her safety Tracy allows herself a smile.

Frankie refuses to buy Jamie’s story that Danny just gave him everything and disappeared. She insists they go round to his flat and is stunned to find it just as he left it with the TV on and the toast in the toaster. It’s like the Marie Celeste and Frankie can’t help but wondering if there’s more to his disappearance.

Paul’s wife is the talk of the factory now she’s finally been revealed. Carla meanwhile is making up for lost time and is keen to get to know the street. In the Rovers she continues her mission to put everyone in their place and when she notes Michelle has an admirer in Steve she’s quick to point out she loves a man with power.
