Mick fears for his life behind bars
Is he in big trouble?

Mick is in prison after last week's events and already feels isolated from his life on the outside. Desperate to speak to Johnny and wish him a happy birthday, Mick speaks to a fearsome fellow prisoner called Fraser, having heard that he can supply a burner phone.

Fraser demands a favour in return for helping and Mick agrees, but he's soon horrified by the consequences of getting involved with such a dangerous character and ends up fearing for his life.

Meanwhile, Stuart is delighted by the news that Mick is in prison, but will his good mood last?

Elsewhere, Mel and Jack call a truce and Ray walks in just as they're sharing a hug. When Mel goes off to work, Ray and Jack wind each other up.

Also today, Bex reconsiders her future at the sixth form as it's reminding her too much of Shakil, while Keanu decides that he wants to be a minicab driver as part of his attempts to impress Sharon.


Tuesday

Mick's prison ordeal goes from bad to worse
Is he in over his head?

Mick is facing an awkward situation with Fraser at the prison – and things only get worse when the tough guy asks for another favour. As a result, Mick meets with a mysterious woman during a visiting session.

Mick follows the orders he's been given, but when he returns to Fraser later on, he's given a dangerous ultimatum.

Meanwhile, Hunter cooks lunch for Mel and Ray at the restaurant, wanting to keep the peace as they're arguing. When Ray bails on the meal, a disappointed Hunter lies to Mel and blames himself for the no-show.

Elsewhere, Sonia meets up with the head of Bex's sixth form, wanting to discuss the teen's desire for a transfer. However, when Sonia hears that Bex has the potential to attend a top university, she fails to mention the transfer at all – much to Bex's frustration when she finds out later on.

Also today, Keanu rejects Sharon's offer to let him use one of Phil's cars for minicab work.


Thursday

Mick has worrying news for Linda
How serious is their latest crisis?

When Linda pays a visit to the prison, Mick warns her about the situation with the mystery woman he met earlier in the week.

Later on, Fraser's sinister behaviour continues when he makes a threat that Mick can't ignore.

Meanwhile, Stuart is discharged from hospital but is taken aback when Zara accuses him of being obsessed with his hatred for the Carters. Fearful of losing Zara and wanting to prove that he's changed, an unsettled Stuart gives the Carters an ultimatum.

Elsewhere, Bex breaks down over Shakil when her head of sixth form visits to discuss university options.

Also today, Keanu cleans Charlie's cab for some extra cash, but after an argument with Kat, he finally swallows his pride and takes up Sharon on her offer over Phil's car.

Finally, Hunter and Ray make amends.


Friday

Zara has to decide where her loyalties lie
Will she ever believe that Stuart is lying?

Linda urges Halfway to help get through to Zara, wanting her to believe that Stuart is lying about the shooting. Zara visits Mick in prison and begs him to tell the truth – continuing to stand by her father's version of events.

This isn't Mick's only problem, as Fraser's threats are still on his mind too. How much trouble is he in?

Meanwhile, when Sharon gets jealous over Keanu and Hayley's friendship, she spitefully takes the keys for Phil's car back from Keanu.

Elsewhere, a strange encounter fuels Hunter's suspicions over Ray. When Hunter does some digging, he makes a discovery.
