Ken is trying to come to terms with Susan's death and deciding Adam's future. David sends both Martin and Gail valentine cards; each one purporting to be from the other person. They are not taken in and Martin has a word with David about it. Roy and Hayley realise that parenting isn't as easy as it looks. Dev gets jealous when Geena goes ahead with her "pound a kiss" charity night at the Rovers. He hates watching her being kissed by all the regulars. Ken finds out from Adam that when Susan crashed the car they were actually leaving Scotland for Ireland and not driving to Weatherfield as he'd thought. He realises that Susan was running away with Adam and proceeds to blame Mike for the whole thing. He thinks that if Mike hadn't started hounding Susan to let him see Adam she would never have left and so never have died. Mike turns up at No.1 demanding to see Adam.
