Plot[]

Paul comes to Lloyd's defence and a fight threatens but Anita rings the police, breaking up the incident. Stella and Craig find Beth but so does Karl whose presence intimidates Craig into telling his mum what's wrong. Peter feigns an interest in how the factory makes its goods. Lloyd makes Paul see that it's not the first time he's been subjected to a racist attack. Eileen finds Steve and Brian in the Rovers and Brian makes out that the aborted evening was Paul's fault. Beth can't get through to Craig. Karl tells him that he will help him deal with his "guilt". Worried that Leanne is taking on too much, Stella forces Tina to work at the bistro. Lloyd and Paul return to the Rovers, the best of mates, but Eileen has had enough and walks out. Leanne gets a call from the hospital saying that the swelling on Nick's brain has come down so they are going to reduce his sedation. She and Gail rush round there. Kylie feels pains. Determined to try and win Faye round, Sally tells Anna they’re having a bank holiday barbecue. Anna retorts that Faye won't be there as they're having their own barbecue. Peter feels belittled by Carla as she witters on about the expensive wedding dress she's buying. Michelle tells him that he's got to tell Carla how he feels. Eileen tells Paul that she feels she's insignificant to him. Gail tells Leanne that she now realises how much she loves her son. Nina Morrison tells them that they want to take Nick off the life support system and that although things are moving in the right direction, they are only part-way through a long process. Eileen tells Paul that she feels she doesn't matter to him.
