Plot[]
Part One: Leanne tears a strip off Nick for his lack of sensitivity towards Liz. It's Tracy's 40th birthday, Daniel gives her a wine appreciation course whilst Adam has clearly forgotten. Peter can't make her birthday lunch at the bistro as he has to work. He tells Ken that he's not happy with his DNR decision. As Nick and Leanne continue to row, they're interrupted by the arrival of Toyah who takes Leanne's side. Nick storms out. Steve fusses over Michelle, telling her that she's not ready to return to work yet. Under pressure, Leanne admits to Toyah that the baby she's carrying isn't Nick's but is actually Steve's, leaving Toyah stunned. Roy shows Brian accommodation adverts he's found in the paper. Handing Adam the keys to the factory and a fake password for Johnny's computer, Alya assures him the place will be empty at lunchtime. Toyah tells Leanne she will cut Nick some slack. Tracy invites Luke to the birthday lunch. Brian sleeps rather than following up the adverts. Nick's perturbed to spot Leanne chatting to Steve outside the cafe. After being questioned, Roy tells Ken that he could never make sense of Hayley's decision to take her life. Robert takes on Nancy Briers as a waitress at the bistro. Reaching a decision, Nick starts to search rentals in Edinburgh.
Part Two: Alya leads the girls to the Rovers to celebrate Izzy's birthday. She spots Adam letting himself into the factory. Just Daniel and Luke make Tracy's birthday lunch. Luke is perturbed to recognise Nancy across the bar. Adam tries but fails to access Johnny's computer. Aidan and Johnny enter the office, filming him, and he realises he's been set up. Daniel has to leave the lunch, annoying Tracy that her birthday is turning out to be a disaster. Nancy speaks to Luke who is an old flame of hers. Fiz unwittingly makes a crass comment suggesting Michelle could always try for another baby. Steve is furious and tears a strip off her. Luke is taken aback when Tracy tells him that she spent her 30th birthday in prison for murder. Toyah is shocked to see Nick's laptop and that he is planning to move himself, Leanne and Simon to Edinburgh. He tells her that it's happening whether Leanne likes it or not.
