Plot[]
Part One: Todd and Billy arrive at the Rovers in time to see Eileen accept Phelan's marriage proposal. He tells Eileen that his original plan was to propose on Monday and take her to Mexico. Michael is disheartened that Phelan has outwitted him. Daniel Osbourne tells the Barlows that Denise got Peter's message about Ken's stroke. Ken has allowed Daniel to visit as he reads books to him which he finds therapeutic. Tracy tells Daniel to leave as he's not proper family but Ken, much improved but still aphasic, insists that he is. Gemma isn't bothered that she didn't win the Good Samaritan Award and dreams of meeting Peter Andre. Gary and Sarah go public. Gail tells Gary that she isn't pleased about him seeing her daughter as he's volatile. He thinks she has a cheek as she raised David. The Barlows are told that Ken can go home tomorrow. Adam isn't happy that he won't get physio or speech therapy on the NHS and offers to pay for him to go private but Ken refuses. Michael gets Sarah and Billy interested in visiting the flats to see how the work is progressing and interrogates Todd about the building schedule. Todd fobs them off, telling them it's not his area but texts Phelan to alert him.
Part Two: Faye shows Phelan's phone to Seb. He's impressed and offers to split the profits when he sells it. Peter, Tracy, Amy, Simon, Daniel and Adam dine at the bistro, where they organise a rota to look after Ken. Amy is to move in with Steve while Adam promises to stay as long as he's needed, as Ken did the same for him. Adam is annoyed by the slow service in the bistro and is intrigued when Tracy tells him that the owner is her cheating ex. Gemma drops a bag of clothes in front of Chesney at the kebab shop and admits that she's been sleeping in the back. Chesney tells her to find somewhere else to live. Phelan decides to hold an open day at the site to buy them time. Michael listens in on Phelan, Vinny and Todd and realises that Todd is in on the scheme. Daniel devours his meal, while Adam complains to Robert about his steak. Robert accuses Tracy of putting Adam up to it and is surprised when Adam defends Tracy and squares up to him. Steph calms the situation by deducting it from the bill. Anna hears Phelan's phone ring and realises Faye has been involved in its theft. She listens to a message from Vinny warning him about Michael. Eileen tells Phelan she's the happiest she's ever been.
