Episode Guide

Cormac received a letter - and cheque for £50,000 - from Lewis. He discussed the pros and cons of accepting the hush money with Ruth. Eileen was snappy with Tommy, and Brian continued to be difficult with her. Ray was shocked at how Brian was behaving towards his mother. Kirsty turned over a new leaf in her attitude towards Tommy.

George lied to Moira about passing his medical, and fretted about the unpaid bills. Jo viewed the flat, and decided to take it, even though it's a complete dump. Brian helped Malcolm and Lily look for a missing dog. The owner, Mr Logan, turned up out of the blue to reclaim his pet, but Lily decided not to tell him they'd found 'Smudge'.

Brian overheard Eileen's phone call enquiring about Lewis. He was furious, so he ransacked Lewis's office. Eileen tried to appease him, to little avail, but Cormac arrived and reasoned with Brian to calm down. Cormac blamed Eileen for Brian's state of mind. Eileen broke down and begged them both not to reveal her secret about Lewis.
