Plot[]
Part One: Gail cannot believe she is locked up with Tracy. Her cellmate says she's pleased to see a friendly face. Janice is quiet with Trevor and he doesn't understand why. Deirdre learns that Blanche has instructed her solicitor to carry out a will-reading in front of a specially invited group of people and agrees for it to take place that night. Hayley explains to Anna how she would love a big wedding but Roy is uncomfortable about publicly declaring his feelings. Tracy tells Gail that she found it hard to come to terms with prison life. The two start to become friendly. Norris is both excited and touched when Ken informs him that he is invited to attend Blanche's will-reading. Gail opens up to Tracy about Joe's death and the money problems that led to it. She explains how she tried to cover for him to protect him and go along with his plan. Rita has had enough of hearing Norris go on about the will. She, Deirdre and Steve speculate about what Blanche could have left him. Tidying Trevor's boots away in his room, Janice discovers a biscuit tin full of cash under his bed.
Part Two: Leanne thinks Janice should ask Trevor outright about the money. Steve gives him another cash instalment for the World Cup tickets. Leanne sees right through Janice's assertion that she's not jealous of Trevor and Carla. Teresa notes Lloyd's behaviour when he jumps at the opportunity to collect Cheryl when she orders a taxi. Tracy has to stifle her laughter as Gail laments about how Joe's financial problems overwhelmed him. Lloyd collects Cheryl. Roy plans the simplest and cheapest wedding possible. Tracy stifles her boredom as Gail goes on about their Lake District honeymoon until she listens with interest as Gail tells her that she hid a rolling pin from Joe to stop him baking more awful shortbread. Teresa spots a cheerful Lloyd dropping off Cheryl and fears the worst. Tracy quizzes Gail about the night of Joe's death. A crying Gail remains certain that he must have had an accident. Tracy's frustrated when a guard interrupts and takes her away. She promises to help Gail through her trauma. Anna informs Roy that Hayley deserves a proper wedding with all the trimmings. Tracy is interviewed by DS Carr and DC Glynn who she's agreed to help. She tells them she's positive that Gail killed her husband.
