Plot[]
With Amy's help, Steve puts the finishing touches to his romantic dinner table. Phelan arrives home to be confronted by Eileen with the damning video footage. Feigning surprise, Phelan makes out that he found all the receipts for the gear and realising it was all legitimate, sold it on Jason's behalf for £2,000. Rana assures Zeedan she only flirted with other men to make him jealous. Flattered, Zeedan softens towards her and invites her to dinner. Amy finds Michelle in the Rovers' yard and telling her how much her dad loves her, leads her inside for her romantic dinner. Todd refuses to apologise to Phelan unless he sees the supposed receipts but Eileen refuses to back him up. Amy plays the violin (badly) for Steve and Michelle as they eat. Billy tells Todd that he's only turning Eileen and Jason against him by his actions. A nervous Sophie joins Kate and Caz in the pub. They all agree to scratch the past and be mates. Phelan and Eileen come into the Rovers and acting on Billy's advice, Todd apologises and offers a truce. Jason's stunned to discover how much Tony has left him - £80,000 cash plus his properties. Phelan's interest is piqued. Eileen makes derogatory comments about Tony, and Jason tells her stay away from the funeral. Gemma makes eyes at Jason across the bar. Todd admits to Billy that his apology was a lie and he spotted Phelan's interest in Jason's legacy. Phelan tells Jason he'll help him deal with his financial matters. Michelle admits to Steve how much she missed him while he was in Spain and how hurt she was that he seemed to have no interest in coming home. Steve assures her that she means everything to him. Caz implores Sophie not to take Kate from her. She's taken aback. After one drink too many, Jason makes an awkward pass at Eva but she turns him down. Sarah tells Kylie she reckons Harry can sense his dead father's presence inside No.8 and she needs to move away. Kylie does her best to calm her down. Zeedan and Rana enjoy their dinner. Leanne tells Zeedan to watch himself with her. Jason focuses his drunken attention on Gemma. She's thrilled and readily follows him back to No.11 as Eva warns him that he'll regret it.
