Plot[]
Part One: Becky's gutted that Steve doesn't want her anymore. Roy and Hayley fuss round her while Becky and Sylvia continue to snipe at each other. Rita introduces Dennis to Eileen and Julie. Eileen realises that he's the person who scratched his name on the window sill at No.11 many years ago. A saddened Sylvia looks at a childhood photo she keeps of Roy in her purse. Stella chides Eva for lounging around in her dressing gown. Sandeesh, Underworld's prospective customer, arrives for a business meeting. Frank shows her round. Steve tells Stella that he's going to Brighton for a few days to stay with Andy who is visiting there, and leaving her in charge of the Rovers. Becky thinks she should move out of the cafe. Carla is shocked by a phone call but hides her distress. Stella's name is put up over the Rovers. Gary isn't happy when Izzy tells her he's meeting some old girlfriends. Becky sees Steve setting off. Tracy is delighted to hear about the divorce and tries to wind her up. Becky is taken aback to see the sign change.
Part Two: Stella refuses Eva some shifts in the pub. Sandeesh tries to beat Carla and Frank down on price. Carla's in no mood for games and tells her to shove her order when she is rude to her. Sandeesh storms out. Carla refuses to tell Frank what's wrong. When Eva's rude to Leanne, Stella's quick to apologise and takes Eva to task for her behaviour. Carla explains her behaviour to a shocked Frank by telling him how she's just found out from her brother that her mother has died. Becky packs her things, telling Roy and Hayley that she's found somewhere else to go. Frank gives Carla a drink and a sympathetic hug. Izzy's late home. Gary behaves strangely and it's clear that he's not happy. Julie learns from Dennis that Elsie's maiden name was "Grimshaw" and wonders if they're related. Eva is again rude to Leanne and the two women argue angrily across the bar. They're interrupted when Becky marches in and tells Stella that with Steve out of the way, it's her pub and she's in charge.
