Plot[]

Eva persuades Kylie that Leanne doesn't really love Nick and is simply using him as a meal ticket. Eva reckons that deep down Nick still carries a torch for her. Kirsty reiterates to Tyrone that he'd best stay away from Super Tykes and Angela, the mother who invited him to the birthday party. David plays pirates with Max and discovers to his horror that the pen he used to draw his own moustache was a permanent marker. Lewis compliments Kylie on her waitressing skills and suggests he puts in a good word for her with Nick. Kylie's touched. When Leanne catches Kylie swigging out of a leftover bottle of wine behind the bar, she's furious and tells Nick that he ought to sack her. Tyrone admits to Fiz that he won't be attending the kids' party as Kirsty's banned him because she's jealous of Angela. Fiz points out that Kirsty's being completely unreasonable and insists that Tyrone should put his foot down. Kylie and Eva bitch about Leanne and come up with a plan to push Nick into proposing to Leanne knowing that she will turn him down. Tyrone tries to broach the subject of the party with Kirsty but she's not in the best of moods and he chickens out. Kylie sows the seed in Nick's mind that Leanne likes a grand gesture and he should surprise her by asking her to marry him. By way of apology, Rob pays for Steve and Michelle's dinner in the bistro. Eva puts in her twopenn'orth with Nick, subtly encouraging him to propose to Leanne. Nick calls Leanne to the bistro and with the champagne on ice, asks her to marry him, but Leanne tells him it's too soon. Nick's gutted and asks her if she loves him as much as she loved Peter. When Leanne hesitates, Nick realises that he's second best and leaves devastated. Eva watches from a distance, delighted that her plan went like clockwork.
