Plot[]
Tracy arrives home, tearful and bereft. Deirdre tries to comfort her. Tyrone, Sophie, Eileen, David and Norris are all independently fuming to find that the Christmas tree they each bought from Chesney and Gary is now bald. Audrey's annoyed to find the water supply at the salon has been cut off. David suspects that Owen's the culprit. Becky laments to Hayley how she's still in love with Steve but he'll never leave Tracy because of the twins. Tracy tells Deirdre how she suspects Steve and Becky of having an affair behind her back. At Kylie's suggestion, Audrey sets up a makeshift salon at No.8. Audrey asks Owen to have a look at the salon plumbing. Tracy bangs on Becky's door, looking for Steve. Becky insists he's not there but Tracy forces her way in to check. Becky admits to Tracy that she tried to seduce Steve at the hotel but he knocked her back. She assures Tracy that Steve is completely dedicated to her and the twins. As Tracy's leaving Becky's flat, she stumbles and falls down the stairs. Becky's shocked and calls an ambulance. Chesney and Gary are confronted by a bunch of angry residents all demanding their money back for their now bald Christmas trees. Peter promises Carla that he'll engineer some time with her on Christmas Day. Steve finally picks up Becky's messages. He rushes to the hospital where distraught Tracy tells him that Becky pushed her down the stairs and killed their babies.
