Plot[]
Part One: Eileen quickly claims she's feeling much better after her "illness". Todd pushes Adrian into giving his mum her surprise. Roy passes a sympathy card from Carla with a cheque for charity to Yasmeen. Zeedan snatches it away. Eileen squirms as Adrian talks about the weekend away. Alya tells Zeedan she's going to use Carla to set up her own business and then burn her off. Alya stops Zeedan putting a brick through Carla's car window. He throws the cheque at Carla's feet. Yasmeen regrets the years she spent pushing Kal to be better, thinking if he'd been more ordinary he wouldn't have rushed into a burning building. Todd enjoys Eileen's anxiety, clearly expecting "Jeff" to arrive at any minute. Unsettled by Todd's demeanour, Eileen comes to a decision to ditch Jeff and go away with Adrian. Todd takes huge delight in informing Adrian about his rival, Eileen's dream man with whom he could never compete. When Todd takes off his coat to reveal a red top and Steph brings him his order of an apple martini, the penny drops for Eileen.
Part Two: Adrian walks out on Eileen, saying he's had a lucky escape. With Julie's attention fully on Eileen, Dev has to leave their chat until another time. The Grimshaws demand answers from Todd. He bitterly explains it's payback for the time he was attacked and left scarred after being stood up by his family. Believing Craig has started sleepwalking, Kirk and Beth camp out on the sofa for the night to catch him leaving No.5. Jason's stunned when Todd confirms that he engineered his split from Eva too. He punches him and has to be pulled away by Sean. Eileen demands they all leave the bistro, tired of putting on a public show. Rucksack on, Craig slips out of No.5 unseen while Kirk and Beth are distracted. The Grimshaws go home where Eileen demands more answers. Todd claims he's always been second best to Jason and walks out on them. Zeedan regrets the way he behaved to Kal. Todd leaves in a taxi, Julie telling him that he's going to die a sad and lonely man. Eileen sobs to herself.
