Plot[]

Part One: Geoff enjoys winding Alya up about any sale arrangements and it's soon apparent he has no intention of selling the house, just to fund Yasmeen's case. Squirming with shame, Johnny reveals his criminal past to Jenny, and that he was once involved in a robbery. Jenny's appalled. Alya quizzes Geoff about the loans. He points the finger of blame at Yasmeen and her expensive tastes, but Alya isn't fooled. He orders her out of the house. Johnny admits that Scott was responsible for the bistro robbery and tried to force him into driving the car, but he refused to be a part of it. Stunned, Jenny storms out, throwing a filthy look at an unfazed Scott as she walks through the bar. Realising she knows everything now, Scott tells Emma to let Johnny know he's leaving the area for a new job in Kent. Beth angrily berates Craig for putting himself in danger, just to impress Faye. Jenny returns. She tells Johnny he's a snivelling wreck and not the man she fell in love with, turning on him for allowing such a man as Scott into their home.

Part Two: Alya can't contain her emotions, saying that Geoff has got all the cards in his favour. Putting on a brave face, Evelyn explains to Dev that her relationship is over, her holiday is cancelled, and she'd like her job back. Admitting that Aadi isn't as good as her, he agrees. Jenny thinks their marriage is over. Evelyn hands Roy back his Norfolk books and maps, blaming her own sharp personality for her failures in life. Johnny tells Jenny he's going to shop Scott to the police, even if it means paying the price for a crime that he committed over thirty years ago. She angrily retorts that she'd be the one paying the real price while he languishes in prison. Seeing Geoff charming a woman customer, and wondering what he's doing with the money, Alya and Ryan resolve to follow him and see what he's up to. Emma passes on Scott's message. Johnny is puzzled but Jenny is relieved. Nevertheless, she rants at her husband that she barely loves him now any more than she hates him.
