Plot[]

Part One: Craig has obtained an engagement ring with which to propose to Faye, oblivious to the fact that she is noticeably colder towards him. Billy suggests that he and Paul book a holiday and offers to pay for it with a tax rebate he’s getting. Paul does his best to appear enthusiastic. In the factory, Kirk gives Beth the cold shoulder. She admits to Faye that she might have messed up the best thing she ever had in her life, giving her pause for thought. Professor Campbell informs Ryan that the skin graft was successful and he’s free to go home later today but he’s in a depressed mood. Stu returns from a meeting at Eliza’s school and tells Yasmeen that the head suggested his granddaughter might be better off elsewhere. Yasmeen agrees that a fresh start could be the answer. Asha and Amy agree to organise a surprise party for Nina’s 21st birthday when a gig that she was looking forward to is cancelled. Asha assures Amy that Aaron is off the list of invitees. Jackson asks Faye to move to Slough with him as he has managed to get a new job and he wants her to be part of Miley’s life with him.


Part Two: Jackson tells Faye that he needs an answer soon in order that he can inform Miley in good time. Ryan struggles when he sees a group of nurses giggling but is paranoid that they're talking about him. Paul takes a call from his MND specialist hoping to find out one way or the other if he’s got motor neurone disease, but when Billy returns home, he quickly kills the call. A little girl runs into Ryan’s room chasing her toy and stares at his burned face, full of curiosity. He snaps at Alya, upset about the incident. Stu tells Eliza that he’s arranged an admission interview for her at Oakhill School but she’s not enthusiastic. Beth gives Craig her blessing to the proposal and has an idea how to do it in style. Daisy can’t get responses to her texts to Ryan. Paul is shocked when he hears that Rufus died last Friday. Tim gives his blessing to Craig to propose. Beth tells Hope she crossed the line in sending the photo but she’s unrepentant. Daisy passes on a message to Faye to go to Victoria Gardens. Aaron overhears Asha discussing Nina’s surprise party with Aadi and invites himself along. Faye turns up at the gardens where her family, Jackson and Miley are assembled, and Glenda sings as Craig goes down on one knee to propose.


Part Three: Faye hesitates but then says yes. Jackson isn’t happy. Asha asks Aaron not to attend the party and he agrees without complaint. Eliza meets Sam for the first time, and they form a bond over being bullied. The engagement party decamp to the Rovers to celebrate. Tim sees that his daughter seems unhappy and asks her if she’s sure that she knows what she’s doing. Sam helps Eliza with her homework. She tells Stu that she’s not certain about going to Oakhill and asks Sam what Weatherfield High is like. Michael advises Faye to follow her instincts. Amy can’t take it when Aadi praises Aaron for his diplomatic stance in not coming to the party, leaving Asha wondering who is telling the truth. Beth assures Kirk she’s never going to see Marco again, but he’s not interested. Alya tells Daisy about Ryan’s depressed state. Faye argues with Jackson when he tries to persuade her to change her mind but she’s adamant that she’s choosing Craig.


Part Four: Craig tries to cheer up his despondent mother. Carla has brought Ryan to stay at her flat. Daisy visits him but he is still down. Jackson confronts Craig and tells him that Faye is thinking of moving away with him. Daisy sends Ryan more texts in the name of Crystal. The exchange cheers him up. Stu relents and agrees to call Weatherfield High. Carla is surprised to see how more upbeat Ryan seems. Craig summons Faye and tells her what Jackson told him, demanding she is truthful with him. Billy changes his mind and tells Paul he’s using the tax rebate to pay off his debts. Faye tells Craig that Jackson is lying and that she will deal with him.
