Plot[]
Bev is dubious about Shelley's part in running the bookies and points out that Shelley has no legal claim over Peter's property. Hayley thinks that if Deirdre knew that Tracy were pregnant, she'd be able to stop her driving a cab. Shelley sees a "For Sale" sign outside the bookies. She and Lucy are convinced that Peter is trying to sell his assets before they can make a claim against him. Maria offends Nick by teasing him about his close friendship with Todd. Candice takes advantage and asks Nick out on a date. Roy and Hayley find Tracy drinking lager in the Rovers. Tracy insults Roy when he tells her that it's time she told Ken and Deirdre about the baby. Emily warns Tracy that she won't be able to keep her secret for much longer, as her bump will start to show. Sunita is intrigued when Dev mentions he's seeing a woman solicitor about employment law. Karen has been looking at wedding venues. Ken worries that Peter should know what Shelley and Lucy are up to - Ciaran tells him that it's in hand. Lucy gives a hesitant Shelley her share of a large wad of cash. It's the first step in their revenge against Peter. Roy and Hayley decide to take a new approach with Tracy - instead of a campaign of appeasement, they're going to "fight her on the beaches".
