Calvin goes to Warren for another job
Monday 9th Feb
Carmel is running a Valentine's Day promotion at Evissa aimed at getting the men in for a bit of pampering. She tries to convince Calvin to get involved but he's reluctant and begins to feel the strain of trying to keep his wife happy as Carmel starts discussing holidays now that Calvin's making more money at work.
Much to Spencer's delight Warren has a flash new sports car on loan and when Calvin spots Warren and his new wheels, his envy is freshly stoked and he yearns once more for Warren's playboy lifestyle. Realising that he'll have to make more money if he wants to give Carmel and him a better life, Calvin goes to see Warren again and asks for one more job.
When Nancy happens across Carmel in the village and Carmel asks her if she wants to sign Ravi up for a beauty session at Evissa, Nancy spots the opportunity to get Ravi out of the flat for a few hours. Nancy bumps into Kris in The Dog and in spite of her moral compass initially steering her away from him, she manages to drop into conversation that Ravi won't be at home for a few hours.
Kris is on his way over to see Nancy when he spots Ravi going into Evissa. Enjoying the power and the mischief, Kris decides, rather than spend the night with Nancy, he'll pursue her boyfriend instead. Ironically Kris' meddling backfires when Ravi returns home to see Nancy and the couple enjoy a very romantic Valentine's together.
On behalf of Ash, Gilly arrives at Tan & Tumble to check up on Jacqui but his presence threatens to put a halt to Jacqui's under-the-counter black market clothing store. Theresa is desperate to prove herself as one of the McQueens, so takes the initiative to rescue Jacqui's enterprise. When Mercedes and Jacqui see Theresa chatting up Gilly, they can hardly believe it and then when she drags him out of the shop for a date, they are totally gobsmacked. It's only when she returns alone that Jacqui and Mercedes realise what Theresa has done. Perhaps there's more McQueen in Theresa than they gave her credit for…
Sasha goes to see Warren in the hope of rekindling their kiss from the other night, but he's cold with her from the off. Sasha puts this down to Spencer being in the flat, so when Warren mentions that he needs someone to keep Spencer company for the day, Sasha jumps at the chance, despite of having work to get on with. But Sasha's hopes are dashed and she is completely devastated when Warren comes home that night, not to her but instead with a drunken Sarah on his arm.
Warren puts Calvin in a tricky position
Tuesday, February 10
Sarah wakes up in Warren's bed, memories of the night previous and regrets of the morning present wash across her. She makes her excuses and as she goes to leave, she half hopes for an invitation to stay on or at least get some breakfast together. Any such hopes are quickly put to bed when she realises that Warren doesn't even know her name.
Archie catches up with Sarah on the Piazza and assures her that even though she slept with Warren last night, he is still holding out for her. A bemused Sarah, although sceptical, secretly finds some solace in this. She is further tickled when Archie tells her that he plans on getting an England cap for lawn bowling in order to complete yet another task on his list and eventually win her heart.
Jacqui's woes are not over as Ash turns up at Tan & Tumble to keep an eye on her. Theresa arrives, hoping to pick up where she left off yesterday and cash in on Jacqui's illicit clothes shop. She's disappointed to discover that Ash's presence has put the kybosh on their enterprise and even more disappointed when Jacqui makes her start cleaning the shop to cover their tracks. Jacqui continues to keep Ash busy, while Theresa hits the town with Anita, enlisting her unwitting help for some casual shoplifting. Jacqui's expectations are all exceeded, though, when Theresa returns with a false pregnant belly full of swag.
Nancy and Ravi are getting on surprisingly well in spite of their respective infidelities and even Kris turning up doesn't spoil the mood. Kris enjoys playing both Nancy and Ravi, but his plan begins to backfire when neither wants to spend any time with him, favouring a weekend away together instead. Kris begins to worry that his secret affair with Nancy and Ravi is inadvertently driving them closer together.
Calvin decides that he's truly had enough of just getting by and that while being a morally upstanding citizen has its benefits, he wants to have some fun. So Calvin promises Carmel a holiday away to wherever she wants and leaves her bouncing with joy whilst he goes to see Warren about getting some work to raise these funds. Warren throws Calvin some 'insurance' work: to retrieve some money from a surly mechanic and his pregnant wife.
Calvin can't help feeling bad when they hand over the money, so Warren offers him a solution - Calvin can keep the money as his fee and may do with it as he pleases. Calvin's stunned at the ease of getting the money so quickly but faces a moral dilemma in whether to keep it or not…

Amy can't help warding her friend away from Warren but Sasha just takes it as jealousy and disregards Amy's better judgement. Warren arrives to pick up Spencer and sees Sasha squabbling with Amy. It serves as a swift reminder that Sasha is still just a schoolgirl.

Sasha arrives and convinces Spencer to let her into the car and eventually to get out, on the grounds that Warren won't be angry. Warren reluctantly concedes but the moment Spencer steps out, Warren flies off the handle and drags him home kicking and screaming. Both Spencer and Sasha are left feeling totally betrayed. The grief and guilt of Louise's death obviously still hangs heavy over Warren.
Loretta and Dom are excited because they're going to see a rare bird that has nested in Hollyoaks, but Dom is ill and Loretta can't help but worry about him.

Dom spots it first and just as he points it out to Loretta, he lets out an almighty sneeze and quick as a flash, the bird disappears.
