Episode 9273 (13th October 2017)

Plot[]

Part One: Nicola still hasn't made up her mind what to do with the baby though Phelan hopes she will keep it. Summer senses the atmosphere between Billy and Todd. Alya tells a surprised Kate about Zeedan and Rana's wedding plans. In the bistro, Phelan overhears Daniel arguing with Michelle when she insists that he was to work the Friday as per the rota. After Phelan has gone, Daniel arranges to change his day off. Nicola calls to see Lydia Hartman, a friend of her mother. Amy and Asha get Summer to spray a penis in shaving foam on Mrs McEvoy's car. She is spotted and taken inside. Nicola tells Lydia about the baby and Phelan. Lydia reacts with utter shock when she sees Phelan's photo. Adam tells Todd all the Underworld equipment has been offloaded. He and Billy are summoned to the school. Alya thinks Rana is behaving strangely. Phelan sees Daniel setting off for the nursing home and realises he's been thwarted. Before he can set off, Nicola arrives back and asks him what he knows about Lydia and why she reacted so strangely.

Part Two: Phelan denies any knowledge but the revelation has shaken him too. He then sets off in pursuit of Daniel. Todd has to admit in front of Billy, Summer and Mrs McEvoy that he told the girl that on occasion it's fine to bend the rules so long as you don't get caught. Billy is angry. Daniel brings Flora some birthday cake as they wait for Vinny's call. Kate calls on Rana, saying she needs to know what's going on. The nursing home receptionist tells Daniel that Flora's birthday was two weeks ago and she's never had a call since she arrived at the home. Toyah won't let Liz leave her shift early to join Audrey and Eileen for an afternoon out and asks her to unblock the ladies' toilets instead. Todd and Billy arrive back to see Adam being arrested. Todd is also taken in. Vinny calls on FaceTime to wish Flora a happy birthday. He is stunned when Phelan appears on the screen with his mother.

Notable dialogue[]

Todd Grimshaw: "Okay, so what exactly did she write on the car?"
Mrs McEvoy: "It was more of a drawing."
Todd Grimshaw: "Well, she's very creative. What did she draw on the car?"
