Plot

Terry struggles to remember who Tricia is. She is thrilled to see him and proudly shows him his son, Brad. Mike brings Alma back home from hospital. Vera is torn when she sees Terry. She tells him that Tricia has adored his memory and that Brad is definitely his son. Alma is amazed that after all Don did to her that she still saved him by dragging him out of the water. She hits out at Mike, telling him that Don put her through hell because of him. Jack is disgusted to see Terry back. He nearly goes for him when Terry thanks him for looking after Tricia for him. Jack tells Vera that he can't believe she's forgotten how much she despised Terry last time he left. Don is sectioned for medical examination. Gail is sickened by him and tells the hospital that she'll tell the police all his past record of instability. She tells Martin she never wants to see Don again. Martin feels they can't turn their back on him. Jamie isn't impressed by Terry's arrival. Tricia dresses up for Terry and warns Jamie not to talk about Ray Thorpe. Mavis gets upset when Wilf Gaskell questions her on why Derek isn't looking after his allotment. He feels awful when she tells him Derek is dead. Gail tries to console Alma and tells Martin and the Baldwins how Don tormented Denise with abusive phone calls. Martin is amazed she kept the knowledge to herself and Alma tells her she should have spoken out years ago as Don might have been locked up then. Tricia is confused when Terry tells her that he knew all about her and the baby from his old girlfriend Nicola but feared she wouldn't want him as he'd given Tommy away. She is thrilled when he feeds Brad and kisses her, but a worried Jack looks on.
