Plot[]
Part One: Toyah locks herself out of her flat. Peter lets her borrow some of Tracy's old clothes for her first day at the medical centre. Steve's mates plan a surprise stag do at the Rovers. David invites Lewis and Audrey over for tea despite Gail's feelings on the subject. Tyrone wonders who his real parents are. Fiz suggests finding them but he doesn't think it's possible. Billy gives Frank money for a new tent when kids set fire to his things. Bethany sees Billy handing cash over and fears he's paying for drugs. Paula calls at No.4 to see Sophie but Sally thinks she's after Kevin. Summer tells Bethany that Billy isn't doing drugs. Kirk takes a taxi to Lytham St Annes to keep Steve out of the way until the Rovers is ready. Moira gets on with Toyah and compliments her for dropping her usual hippy look. David advises Bethany to obtain proof that Billy has fallen off the wagon. She follows him in a cab when she sees him setting off in his car.
Part Two: Kirk brings Steve to the Rovers where the stags, including Tim, Ali, Ryan, Peter and Eileen, handcuff him to the bar. Roy and Brian look through old newspapers for articles about missing babies. Steve is trapped when the key falls down the sink. Billy leads Bethany to Weatherfield General where she sees him reading to Josh. Sally joins Paula and Sophie together at Speed Daal, to their disappointment. Sally buys Paula's story that she went there to go through the court case with Sophie to put her mind at ease. Eileen considers staying away from the wedding as she still doesn't approve of Steve marrying Tracy. Peter reveals to Steve that he has a spare key at home and goes off to get it. Bethany marches into Josh's room and demands an explanation from Billy. Billy begs her not to tell David. The stags make Steve taste mystery drinks and blindfold him. Removing it, he sees none other than Jim standing in front of him.
