Tim's enjoying the new easy-going Sally and won't listen to Jason's warnings about her true highly-strung nature. Eva thanks Jason for his kindness to Stella and sees him in a new light. Hayley has a heart-to-heart with Fiz and tells her about her nightmare. She confesses to her about her son, Christian Gatley, and their history. In view of the fact that last time they met he attacked Hayley, Fiz advises her to forget him. Hayley though wants to meet him again before it's too late and make amends. When she tells Roy, he doesn't understand and tells her that she's wrong. She accepts his viewpoint. Tyrone takes Beyonce back and is delighted to find that her owner was a member of the Weatherfield Pigeon Fanciers Club and knew Jack Duckworth. Dev finds it hard coping at the corner shop. Tim mentions having a weekend away to a delighted Sally. Chesney is pleased for Fiz when she tells him that she's moving in with Tyrone. Hayley books the Rovers for a birthday party on Friday for Roy. Fiz tells him that despite their misgivings they should let Hayley have her way as regards Christian. Sally goes into overdrive, suggesting a trip to Paris, and a pained Tim is left to recall Jason's words. Having seen how Dev is coping, Stella decides she has to move on herself. Tyrone tells Fiz that he's thinking of getting his own pigeons but she tells him it's over her dead body. Roy tells Hayley to contact Christian.
