Plot
As Fiz prepares Hope for her hospital appointment, Tyrone secretly opens a letter from a loan company demanding payment. Ken grudgingly allows Tracy to move back into No.1. Nick calls on Carla as she's not been answering his calls. Johnny phones Rob and informs him that he’s told Carla the truth so his blackmail plot has failed. Rob’s thwarted, even more so when a warder spots his illicit mobile phone. Kevin and Sophie decide to have a week in the sun before the garage extension work begins. Nick's amazed when Carla tells him the story about Johnny's parentage and Rob's blackmail. Amy nags Tracy out of her depression and offers to help her out at the shop - for money. Billy senses Emily’s yearning to volunteer in Peru and encourages her to go for it. Richie O'Driscoll gives Underworld the contract. Despite Johnny trying to put him off, Aidan runs off to tell Carla. Ted Teddington threatens Tyrone for his money by Friday for helping out with Lapland. Nick prevents Aidan talking to a vengeful Carla. A desperate Tyrone raids the garage's petty cash but is caught by Kevin. Tyrone admits he's in a mess. To Audrey's annoyance, Nessa pushes Ken into hosting a New Year's Eve party. Tyrone tells Kevin he owes £10,000 to various debtors. Kevin cancels his holiday plans to give him the bonus on the condition that he tells Fiz the truth. Johnny’s filled with dread at the prospect of Carla revealing all to Aidan and Kate about his past. Amy persuades Tracy to try again with Robert. Emily announces she’s off to Peru, to Rita and Norris's amazement. Nessa's plans grow and the party is planned to be on a Hawaiian theme. Audrey asks Ken to decide if he's really being true to himself about Nessa. Roy and Nick implore Carla not to distress Aidan and Kate with the truth in her bid to punish Johnny but she's not persuaded. Fiz breaks down, fearful over the scan results and Tyrone can't bring himself to keep to his promise to Kevin.
