Plot[]
Tyrone secretly phones Fiz and arranges to meet her at Tina's flat. David and Kylie have a heart-to-heart. Kylie desperately insists that she's not capable of raising another child. David thinks she underestimates herself. Mary returns to help at the cafe while Roy's still suffering with his back. Rob logs into the Underworld calendar and sees a new meeting has been scheduled. He makes a note of the contact number, oblivious to Carla's plan. Kylie angrily tackles Eva for blabbing to David about the abortion. Eva's contrite but reiterates that Kylie would be making a huge mistake to throw away her marriage by going through with it. Kylie's in turmoil. Karl asks Steve to re-employ him as a driver at Street Cars. Nick is mortified when Kylie reveals that she intends to tell David the truth about the baby. Tyrone tells Fiz that once he's married he's taking Ruby and leaving Kirsty. Fiz vows to stand by him throughout any resultant legal proceedings but warns it will be costly. Kylie explains to Nick that the only way to save her marriage is to be honest. She refuses to risk David finding out he's not the baby's father as it would destroy him. Nick can't believe his ears. Rob arrives at the bistro for his business meeting to be met by Carla and Michelle. Carla threatens to go to the police if he doesn't give up his new business. Rob laughs and assures her that he's going nowhere. Carla's frustrated. Nick thinks that Kylie's mad, as she cannot be sure the baby isn't actually David's. He urges her to keep schtum, and says if she chooses to have the baby they must never question that David is the father. Tearful Kylie faces an impossible dilemma. Stella can't help feeling sorry for Karl. With her blessing, Steve gives him back his job. Tyrone summons Kevin to No.9 and asks him to buy his share of the garage. Kevin's shocked. Keeping quiet about his plan to flee, Tyrone claims that the money is for his family's future and makes baffled Kevin promise not to say anything to Kirsty. David's overcome with relief when Kylie decides not to go ahead with the abortion. Delighted David swears she won't regret the decision. Guilty Kylie can only hope so.
