Kirsty catches up with Helen on her way to visit Blake in hospital. She hopes his back injury hasn’t been exacerbated by being knocked down by a car. Helen is relieved that the odd sightings round Beechwood were nothing to do with Rob after all. She feels defiant now.
At the hospital Lynda comes across Kirsty who feels helpless as Blake has refused to see her. Lynda suggests she takes the things Kirsty has brought for Blake as he might agree for her to visit.
At the sight of Lynda, Blake worries that he’s going to be arrested for the Grey Gables explosion. She assures him that he’s not and tries to make him see that the explosion wasn’t his fault. He points out her scars and again Lynda says he’s not to blame. Lynda encourages him to look at making a new start. Blake doesn’t want that; he wants things to go back to how they were when he was working for Philip. He can’t imagine a happier future for himself.
David and Josh meet Beth at Borchester livestock market where she works. Beth wants David to know that she’s nothing like her dad and she won’t be a bad influence on Ben.

Later, Josh bowls in on Beth and Ben’s conversation to ask what Ben’s doing for Jill’s upcoming birthday. He thinks Beth’s idea of making Jill a cake is a bad idea. They make a bet on whether Beth can really impress Jill with cake.
