Plot[]
Part One: Steve is annoyed about Tracy's inheritance from Blanche, feeling that she will never pass anything on to Amy. Becky's astonished to receive a visiting order from Tracy in the morning post. Roy's spent the night in the spare bed and has a bad back as a result. Hayley's unsympathetic. Nick has to pay No.8's electric bill as David has no funds. Steve advises caution, but Becky is determined to find out what Tracy wants. Tracy talks to Gail about Amy and Becky. Gail remarks that she heard Becky is unable to have children. Tracy's thoughtful. Roy fails to open the cafe due to his back and drops the keys to Anna from the flat window. Sean hasn't had a response from Violet to his friend request. David's angry to find that the medical centre is advertising for a new receptionist. Nick says they have a business to run but David feels everyone is turning their backs on their mum. Steve worries as Becky sets off for the prison.
Part Two: Anna struggles to cope alone, and Kirk helps out, much to Roy's alarm. She gives Roy a massage to relieve the pain. Lloyd tells Steve and Eileen that he's split with Teresa. Steve suggests he can now pursue Cheryl. Anna fixes Roy's back but her massage technique gives Hayley the wrong impression. After speaking to Fiz, Hayley decides to patch things up with Roy. Becky visits Tracy, who says she's sorry for her behaviour at the funeral. Tracy's delighted to learn that Blanche has left her £14,000. Roy proposes to make Hayley her favourite meal that night. Lloyd negotiates a contract for Street Cars at Cheryl's lap dancing club with Mal the manager. Tracy tells Becky that in exchange for a favourable reference for their adoption application, she wants Amy's surname to remain Barlow. Carla tells Nick that the business needs more orders after the Rickson's one is completed and soon. Tracy's next condition is for Steve to support her on-going request to move to an open prison by proposing extra visits from Amy. Lloyd tells Steve he's landed the contract. Liz tells Lloyd he has a good chance with Cheryl. Becky accuses Tracy of using her daughter. Tracy hits back, saying that at least she can bear children. They brawl and Tracy is manhandled back to her cell, yelling to Becky that she's now lost any chance of adopting.
