Plot[]
Part One: Phelan guesses Vinny sent his attacker and offers to double whatever his payment is but uses the sudden diversion to fight back. Bested, Pete leaves No.11. Billy is interviewed about his attack by the police, who are puzzled as Peter didn't report the incident. They tell him they'll take statements from both parties. The Appletons and the Coles rush George to hospital. Phelan cleans up the mess resulting from the fight. Anna tries to persuade Tim to give Seb a job but he's reluctant as he dislikes the lad. Phelan starts to panic that Eileen isn't returning his calls and rushes out to look for her, worried that Pete has got to her but finds her emerging from the Rovers after a drink from Liz. Tim refuses to give Seb a job, much to Anna's disgust. A tearful Billy returns home and confesses what he's done, saying he could be facing a charge of ABH. Todd is livid that he's jeopardised everything with Summer. Mary feels guilty at her actions. The hospital think George has a viral infection. Mary pushes for the family to stay while the child recovers, causing Angie to explode at her again.
Part Two: The sympathetic doctor listens as Angie tells her that she can't bond with her baby and she feels like a bad mother. The doctor tells her that she possibly has postnatal depression and needs family support but Angie initially rejects the diagnosis. Sally has some people coming round for nibbles to discuss her mayoral campaign but Gina is missing. Tim agrees to give Seb a trial, helping out with his round. Angie agrees to stay a while longer. Dev and Gina come downstairs in a state of partial undress, embarrassing Sally in front of her guests. Faye feels uncomfortable with how well Anna and Seb are getting on. Gina asks Sally not to tell Dev about her personal problems. An uneasy truce exists between Angie and Mary. Norris guesses that Angie's claim of a new job was false. Keith Patton, a High Court enforcement agent, calls on Gina about a bad debt for which Sally was the unknowing guarantor. She begs for more time and is threatened with bailiff action. Norris tells Mary of his suspicions about Angie. They find leaflets from the hospital, one of which is about cutting down drinking, and Mary worries that Angie is an alcoholic. Phelan calls on Flora and finds out that Vinny is due to fly in and visit her tomorrow. He resolves to meet up with the returnee himself.
