Plot[]
Part One: Sarah offers to do the secretarial work at the yard to take pressure off Gary. Gary agrees but can't afford to pay her. Michelle thinks Carla was right not to go into partnership with Peter. Eileen notices how cagey Sean is and discovers no one knows his address. Fiz is shocked to learn about his recent mugging and sacking. Jude tells Angie the present was Mary's idea. He's keen for them to work through their problems. Johnny watches Aidan's interview over and over. Carla can't bring herself to tell him that she's no longer buying the factory. Adam suggests a good solicitor to Sally but she doesn't trust his advice. Carla agrees to have Peter as a sleeping partner. Carol comforts Sean in Victoria Gardens and makes him see that he'll have to beg for money to eat, after he initially baulks at the idea. Alya signs the factory over to Carla and Peter as equal partners. Johnny is shocked but considers Peter's involvement a price worth paying. The police call to question Tim about his attack on Duncan.
Part Two: Jude starts an argument with Adam in Speed Daal when he makes a crack about the cushion. Tim denies going round to his house before admitting his guilt when Sally tries to give him an alibi. He insists he was there alone. Curiously, Duncan has said the same in his statement. Tim is arrested for assault and witness intimidation. Carol sets Sean up with his sleeping bag on a street corner. Gemma puts cosmetics in the ladies toilets but they keep being stolen as the women think they're complimentary. Michelle sees Peter and Carla celebrating in the Rovers and thinks Carla is heading for trouble. Tim is let off with a caution. He can't figure out why Duncan left Sally's name out of it unless they were indeed having an affair. Surveying the empty factory together, Carla kisses Peter leading to a passionate embrace.
