Plot[]
Part One: Sarah is delighted to have Bethany home now that she's cleared her head. Mary is beside herself with worry about George and pours her heart out to Bethany. Summer goes to a friend's sleepover. Billy takes an interest in the Barlows, seeking a way to alleviate his guilt over Susan. Gary meets Nicola and tells her that Phelan has used a PI to find out where she's living now. Zeedan ropes Rana and Kate into attending a food fair in the van as he's needed at the bistro. Neither woman is happy about it. Gemma is convinced that Henry Newton is the one. Mary isn't speaking to Norris. The van breaks down in the countryside. Gary offers to do another job in Ukraine and send Nicola the money so she can afford a new life abroad, for his baby's sake. She agrees.
Part Two: Having called Luke for help, the girls wait in a pub, where they argue about their feelings for each other. Kate calls Rana cruel for messing her about. Rana defends her decision to marry Zeedan; her parents would disown her if she told them she was gay. Gemma begins to worry when Henry doesn't call her. Prompted by kind words from Billy, Ken gathers the Barlows in the Rovers and insists that they will have a happy Christmas together. Kate forgives Rana and tells her what she said in the deleted voicemail message. Rana is thrilled that she proclaimed her love for her and lets Kate kiss her. Henry turns up at the Rovers with flowers and asks Gemma out. Gary tells Sarah he's doing one last job in the Ukraine to give them the best Christmas ever. Adam uses Todd's computer in the solicitors office and discovers that he's been reading up on Susan's car crash. Bethany goes into Weatherfield General to ask Jude how George is on Mary's behalf. Angie spots Mary waiting in the delivery van and calls the police. Todd invites Adam to dinner at the flat. He's thrown when Adam asks why he's been digging for info on his dead mother. Luke and Alya arrive at the country pub and find the van seemingly empty. Luke opens the back doors interrupting a half-naked Kate and Rana as they're making love.
