Plot[]
Part One: Steve and Becky demand to know what's going on. Willmore leaves the McDonalds to thrash things out. Steve is indignant, despite his parents insisting they're trying to help him. Maria is concerned as Carla thinks about extending her trip to London to meet potential clients. Wanting Liz to be kept on as manager, Jim blames Steve and Becky's mishandling of their finances. Steve refuses to budge, saying it's their pub. Leanne makes it clear to Peter that she's jealous about Russ's preferential treatment from the school. She's further angered when she finds out that Russ has broken Simon's DS game. Willmore says that he doesn't intend to buy the Rovers after seeing the books. He points out that as a licensee Liz must reside on the premises. The young man flirts with Sian in the cafe. Graeme and Xin are taken aback to learn about David and Kylie's ambitious wedding plans. Kevin does his best to rile Jeff as he and Sally bicker in the pub. Steve has no option but to allow Liz to move back in, but he refuses to have her behind the bar. Sophie and the young man argue when she finds him giving Sian a reiki massage in the cafe. He's shocked to learn that they are lesbian lovers. Tyrone enters and the lad introduces himself as Tommy Duckworth, wanting to know where to find grandad Jack.
Part Two: Having broken the news of Jack's death, Tyrone and Tommy reminisce about him and Vera. Graeme worries that a big wedding will expose their deception. He and Xin flounder as Ken quizzes them about their news and Norris overhears them. Tyrone tells Tommy that he can stay with him at No.9. Jim tells Liz that he'll make an offer on the pub. Steve and Becky rue the return of Liz and the extra problems it's brought them. Leanne and Cheryl bicker over the computer game. Wanting to avoid things getting out of hand, Peter ushers an irate Leanne out of the pub. Maria is nervous at the thought of being left alone with Frank. In the bar, Norris questions Graeme and Xin, saying they're rushing into things. As the story of their courtship begins to unravel, Tina has to step in and create a diversion, allowing Graeme and Xin to escape. Graeme fears that one slip could mean jail for him. Liz refuses Jim's offer to buy the Rovers when he comes on to her, overwhelmed by too much happening at once.
