Plot[]
Part One: Curtis swears he's not a thief and that he transferred the money into the charity's account as requested. Emma believes her fiancé but Steve isn't convinced, querying the £4,000 he borrowed for private medical consultations despite not being ill. Curtis explains that he paid the sum into Oliver's fund. Emma is devastated as he's led away by Craig. Sending Kelly packing, Abi is puzzled to see the girl let herself into No.7. She's incensed when Kevin reveals that she's living there. He mentions seeing her with Nina as they were setting off on honeymoon. The Platts celebrate when the school decides not to expel Max. Sarah invites Lydia over to help her bake some cakes for the school charity. When Sarah mentions Adam, Lydia's quick to change the subject. Abi calmly questions Nina about Kelly's presence in the street. Nina tells her that continuing to hate Kelly wouldn't bring Seb back. At the police station, Curtis admits that he's told lies to protect his secret but denies stealing £100,000. Steve tells Emma that Curtis must be guilty as he's lied about everything else.
Part Two: Kelly decides to leave No.7 for Abi's sake. Aadi urges her to speak to Abi first. Emma sees Curtis's packed cases at the flat and finally accepts that her fiancé is no good. Curtis returns and asks for a chance to explain himself. Daniel reveals to Daisy that he asked the school not to expel Max. When Daisy takes a call from Ashley, he masks his jealousy. Curtis tells Emma that the cases were for their honeymoon at Fuerteventura. Emma no longer believes him and goes to stay at No.1, telling him to be gone in the morning. Kelly tells Abi that if she can't stay at No.7 she'll be back on the streets. Abi tells her to stay away from her. Steve receives a call from the charity stating that the £100,000 has come through, having been delayed due to a technical fault. Emma tells her dad it's over between her and Curtis.
