David makes a shocking discovery. Cora goes to extreme measures after coming to an upsetting realisation, and Bianca and Sonia are united as they are forced to face their fears.

David urges Whitney to take the kids out for some fun for the bank holiday but with Carol in hospital, Whitney鈥檚 unsure. David discovers the car lot鈥檚 been broken into and some CCTV files are missing. Max鈥檚 gone overboard food shopping, determined that they鈥檒l enjoy bank holiday as a family. Lauren鈥檚 upset that people are pretending everything鈥檚 normal and takes food to the Beales鈥�, but there鈥檚 no answer. As expected, Tiffany and Morgan just want to see Carol but David refuses.

Liam recovers the car lot CCTV files and realises someone deleted the originals. David comes across the footage of Max and Lucy鈥檚 row on Good Friday. In the Minute Mart, Cora discovers Lauren staring at a bottle of wine. She gets upset that Lucy鈥檚 death seems pointless and ponders that if she drank a whole bottle of wine at least death would be her choice. David confronts Max about the deleted footage. Max admits he lied that his fling with Lucy was over, but insists they just argued and then Lucy left. David doesn鈥檛 believe Max and intends to go to the police.

Max wonders how David will feed his family if the car lot goes under. They鈥檙e interrupted when Cora arrives with Lauren. As Max comforts Lauren, David slips out. At home, Bianca reports Carol wants to see David. At the hospital, Carol explains she鈥檒l be coming home tomorrow but admits she鈥檚 scared, and knows David hasn鈥檛 been to see her because he is too. Carol makes David promise to keep the family from falling apart if she doesn鈥檛 pull through. Meanwhile, a guilty Max is about to make a confession to Lauren when Cora interrupts. Cora informs Max of Lauren鈥檚 near slip with the wine.

Max fumes when she asks for money. As he throws Cora out, David arrives back on the Square. Max follows David to the car lot. While David packs up the computer and laptop, Max begs David not to go to the police. David merely tells Max to follow him. Meanwhile, Abi presents Lauren with the suit Lucy bought her, suggesting she start the business up again. At the allotments, David throws the computers and CCTV flash-drive into a metal bin. David tells Max he鈥檚 only doing this for one person, before setting the whole lot on fire.

In hospital, Sonia falters on seeing Carol hooked up to a drip. She blames the oncology nurse for missing the signs of infection. Carol admits she knew her temperature was raised but didn鈥檛 want a fuss and demands to know what Sonia and Bianca were arguing about. Out of earshot of Carol, Sonia thinks they should face the truth 鈥� Carol could have died. Bianca can鈥檛 imagine life without Carol or Sonia. Sonia hates the thought that someday Rebecca could be in the same position because she can鈥檛 face facts.

Tina sneaks in after spending the night at Tosh鈥檚. Shirley鈥檚 worried that if Tina moves in with Tosh, history will repeat itself. Tina insists she belongs in the Vic with Shirley. Later, Tosh gives Tina keys - her offer to move in still stands. With Shirley listening in, Tina suggests Tosh check with Jake and Aleks first. Later, Shirley rouses the Carters to plan a 40th birthday party for Tina 鈥� Tosh wants them out of the picture.

Cora鈥檚 upset when Dexter suggests he move in with Jay if they can鈥檛 afford a deposit on a two bed flat. She calls Tanya for the money with no luck. Dexter and Jay enthuse about the 50鈥� screen TV they鈥檒l have in their new place. Jay鈥檚 amused by Dexter鈥檚 attempts to flirt with Nancy. Max sends Cora packing when she asks for 拢500. Desperate, Cora jacks open the change machine in launderette. Later, she lies that Tanya鈥檚 lending them the deposit for the flat above the doctor鈥檚 surgery, scuppering Dexter鈥檚 plans. Stan buys Cora a drink in the Vic.

Nancy鈥檚 plans with Dexter and Jay are thwarted when she鈥檚 needed at the Vic. She moans to Shirley that she鈥檚 treated like plankton. Later, Mick hands her a pair of boxing gloves and insists they settle things like men. He鈥檚 taken by surprise when Nancy gleefully socks him straight in the jaw.

Stan gets a court letter which he hurriedly conceals.
