Plot[]
Part One: The Websters are hit hard by Jack's prognosis. Sophie is consumed with guilt as Jack's accident happened on her watch. The doctors ask Kevin's family to convince him to give the operation the go-ahead. Sean is delighted to be back at the Rovers. Toyah refuses his request of an advance on his wages. Liz attempts to build bridges with Toyah but realises she's on a hiding to nothing when she sees Sean doing her old job. She calls him Judas and rescinds her offer to stay at her flat. Sophie makes Kevin see that they can't afford to waste time and he signs the consent forms for Jack's operation. Kevin breaks down by his son's side as he's wheeled into the operating theatre.
Part Two: Tracy is pleased with her hair and encourages Maria to carry on with the sideline. Sean goes through his contacts list looking for a bed to sleep in. Ryan and Bethany meet Craig at the Rovers, but Kayla has yet to materialise. Audrey tries to find out what Tracy wanted with Maria at the salon. Maria feebly lies that she was looking for Kirk. Craig is annoyed when Ryan makes thinly veiled references to his OCD. Sean puts on a brave face as his friends all let him down. Tim is concerned that Sally has fallen for Duncan's sob story. Sally sticks up for Duncan and sends Tim home, fed up with his suspicions. Craig gets a text from Kayla saying she can't make it. Craig heads home to find Kayla about to leave in her car, having quit her job. She tells him it's over and asks him not to call her again. Jack is free of the ischaemia after his operation. Sean finds a tent in the bins outside the kebab shop and steals it when no-one is looking. With Jack still unconscious, Kevin doesn't know how he's going to tell him what the doctors have done. Sophie overhears him telling Gina that he should have been the one looking after Jack.
