Plot[]
Steve wakes up on the sofa at the flat. Liz comes in as he's left the front door open, and he thinks it's Karen, but there is still no word from her. Cilla and Les get Chesney up out his bed and downstairs for a surprise. Tommy and Craig are outside with his quad bike and Tommy tells him that although it needs a full service, Chesney can help out at the garage for the day. Ciaran has tried everyone he can think of for a loan for his restaurant with no luck. Steve is still worried about Karen. Fred asks Ciaran to do the lunches as Betty has phoned in sick. Ciaran makes his speciality Irish burgers and they are very popular. Sunita suggests that Steve looks in the cemetery for Karen. He does, and mistakes someone else for her. Chesney helps Tommy with his quad bike and arrives home covered in oil. Tracy tells Ciaran that she will provide people to eat a meal tomorrow night if he provides the food and they will all want to invest in his restaurant. Steve goes back to the Rovers looking for Karen. He's annoyed when everyone seems to know that Karen's missing. Dev and Sunita take Steve home when he starts to imagine the worst. Steve returns to the flat where he finds Karen. She explains to Steve that she went to the beach at Rhyl. It was the last place she remembers being happy as a child. Karen tells him that she is going to change and put everyone else before herself from now onwards.
