Scott tried to break the tension with Tina and speak up for Eddie but she wasn't having any of it and very nearly told him the truth about Eddie's idea to return to his family. After a chat with Ruth, she cut him some slack and realised he really does love Eddie. She then tried to talk the boys into seeing their dad but Paul wouldn't listen. Only Jamie was happy to make peace. Gerry bought tickets to New York, to whisk Heather away for a break. Duncan changed his childcare arrangements, happily and surprisingly quickly.

Sammy explained he knew nothing and who would he tell anything to anyway?! But it was too late - Lenny stabbed him and left him for dead. As if that wasn't dramatic enough, he was seen by Charlie who called an ambulance but was quickly grabbed by Lenny. She was tied up and thrown in the back of a van, where McCabe was already bound and helpless. In Sammy's dying breath, he managed to tell Eddie & Bob that Lenny had taken the lassie…
