Plot[]
Part One: Tim comforts Yasmeen. Geoff hides his astonishment when he comes into the house and finds his son demanding to know what he's up to. Geoff tells a pack of lies to cover for his behaviour and Yasmeen doesn't contradict him. He asks that Tim leaves them alone so that he can ensure his wife is fine. Nina settles down in a street doorway with her belongings and is subjected to abuse by two passing lads. Roy and Carla call at Nina's flat where they find another woman in residence who says she has just moved in and doesn't know who Nina is. A seething Ray advises Bethany to look for another job if she's not happy with her work. Geoff tries to butter up Yasmeen, but she quietly insists on knowing why he lied to Tim and how he could be so cruel to her. Tim confides to Eileen what happened inside No.6. She thinks Geoff's behaviour isn't normal. Sally finds both Tim's divorce papers and an invitation to a proposed second wedding in the envelopes. Roy stresses that he's let Nina down.
Part Two: Geoff tries to insist that everything he does is for Yasmeen's happiness, but she retorts that their relationship isn't one of love and she should walk out on their marriage. He tries to defend himself but resorts to tears when he sees that he is making little impact on her. Daniel pushes Bethany to try for her writing course. Eileen quizzes Brian and Cathy about Yasmeen's supposed drink problem, saying it seems odd how it's suddenly developed. Brian praises Geoff's support for his wife but Cathy is uncomfortable with his words. Roy and Carla return to the cafe and find Nina there with her bags. Sally throws Tim's papers back at him in the Rovers. Daniel forces the issue with Bethany by sending off her application to a college in Preston. Nina admits she is homeless. Roy and Carla tell her that she can stay with them. Geoff claims that his ex-wife abused him. Yasmeen falls for his act and comforts him when he starts to "break down" again.
