Plot[]
Part One: Adam covers when he receives another anonymous phone call and assures Sarah that they've heard the last of Jeremy Bremner. Amy celebrates her eighteenth birthday. Steve and Tracy pretend they are too busy to take her out to celebrate until the weekend, whilst actually planning a surprise party at the bistro that night. Ken's present is a framed picture of them all with Deirdre. Tracy notices Amy is wearing a new bracelet and wonders if it's from her secret boyfriend. Her daughter claims it's from Summer and Asha. Emma brings round a cake. Max waits to find out if he's being excluded. The raid on the solicitor's office makes the Gazette. Kelly feigns illness in front of Gary and Maria in order to skip school. Summer and Asha give Amy earrings for her birthday. She asks them to claim they gave her the bracelet but refuses to say who her boyfriend is. Imran is annoyed that Adam's actions are bringing the firm into disrepute. Adam confides in him about the continuing silent calls but ignores his advice to report them as he doesn't want Sarah frightened. Roy offers to accompany a grateful Nina to her doctor’s appointment about her anxiety. Sarah tells Lydia that her and Adam's troubles are bringing them closer together. Asha is hurt that Roy is accompanying Nina and not her. Kirk reveals to Gary that he saw Kelly out and about late last night when he was walking Peanut. Recalling Kelly felt rough earlier, Gary and Maria fear Kelly's back on drugs.
Part Two: The solicitor's gets extra business as a result of the Gazette publicity. Adam gets another silent call. Sarah and Gail are taken aback to find a large bouquet of flowers in a vase waiting in Sarah's flat. Kelly has gone to Laura's bedsit where she cleans up for her. David is annoyed to find out from Shona that Gail has been saying they're too soft on Max. The lad is taken aback when he overhears David saying he could end up in a pupil referral unit. Steve, Tracy, Emma and Carla set up the bistro for Amy's party. Summer has to hurriedly correct herself when Tracy asks them about their bracelet present as she had been talking about the earrings. Laura can't eat a meal that Kelly has cooked for her but sincerely praises her daughter's efforts. Adam’s baffled when Sarah thanks him for the flowers. Fishing out the card, they are aghast to read the threat, "Next bouquet will be for your funeral." Returning home for cake candles, Steve and Tracy find the chain on the door. Steve sees movement inside. He races round the corner and, intercepting the intruder's escape, tackles him to the ground in Rosamund Street. They are shocked when his hood drops to reveal Jacob Hay. Sarah and Adam deduce that, because the flat door was deadlocked, whoever left the flowers could still be there.
