Distraught after last night’s antics, Leyla (Rokhsaneh Ghawam-Shahidi) faces a smug Nathan (Lyndon Ogbourne) when she braves work the following morning.

Later, Doug decides to pay Leyla a visit but when he questions her down beat mood, Leyla breaks down in tears.

Much later, Laurel returns to Mulberry to find that Sally has already served up dinner. Pleading ignorant, Sally proclaims to a miffed Laurel that she had simply misunderstood her earlier request. Laurel is frustrated with her persistent interference but it’s Sally who is left reeling when it becomes clear that her actions are only freeing up Laurel to spend more time with Ashley. What will ally's next move be?
Meanwhile, Cain (Jeff Hordley) remains guarded and unconvinced by Charity’s (Emma Atkins) return and to test her word, he deliberately leaves his wallet before heading out of the house.

Despite not finding anything of relevance to the security unit, Charity comes across a picture of Debbie (Charley Webb) with Sarah (Sophia Amber Moore) and a smirk crosses her face. Later, Charity finds Cain at the café and hands him his wallet believing it was a genuine error.
