Knowing he’s lost Maria (Samia Smith), Tony (Gray O’Brien) grabs the set of café keys he’s stolen and heads off into the night. Letting himself in Tony lurks in the shadows as Hayley (Julie Hesmondhalgh) sees Roy (David Neilson) off on a bat watch. Picking up a kitchen knife Tony follows Hayley towards the flat but he’s stopped in his tracks when he hears Maria banging on the door. Hiding again Tony listens as Maria sobs her heart out, while Hayley informs her of his confession and threats to kill Roy. Realising he has nothing to lose anymore Tony goes after Roy. Finding him at the canal Tony makes it clear he has come seeking revenge. As Roy demands to know what he’s done to Hayley, he’s horrified to see the blood-stained knife. Believing Tony has killed Hayley, Roy lunges at him. They fight but a younger, fitter Tony easily overpowers Roy then throws him semi-soncsious into the canal. As Roy struggles to stay afloat Tony watches him slip beneath the water. Has Tony killed again?
Elsewhere Eileen’s (Sue Cleaver) annoyed that Jesse (John Thompson) didn’t tell her about his fortieth birthday on Friday. She tries to force him to come clean but when he still won’t confess Lloyd (Craig Charles) suggests she should throw him a surprise party.
And as David (Jack P Shepherd) discusses Gail’s impending wedding with his new girlfriend Zoe (Kirsty-Leigh Porter), she correctly deduces that David would never approve of Gail’s choice of man.
This episode is written by Joe Turner and produced by Kim Crowther, the director is Neil Johnston.

As he swears revenge on Tony, Michelle tries to calm him, but Ryan breaks down claiming he’s going to live with his grandparents as he can’t bear to stay in Weatherfield any longer. Devastated Michelle advises he call them first. But after speaking to Barry, Ryan decides to stay. Michelle‘s relieved until Ryan explains that Barry and Helen have flown in from Ireland and are at the airport.
Over at no.7 a hysterical Maria sets about removing all traces of Tony from her life. Still in a state of shock it’s clear Maria is a broken woman.
Elsewhere Gail (Helen Worth) and Joe (Reece Dinsdale) are about to go shopping for their wedding but when Joe gets a phone call from his debt collector he‘s forced to send Gail without him.

Eventually they track her down to Liam’s grave where Maria, on the verge of a breakdown, makes a shock decision.
Fearing there’s no way out a desperate Joe (Reece Dinsdale) is forced to admit his massive debts to Gail (Helen Worth), although he doesn’t go as far as revealing a loan shark is involved. In a state of shock Gail walks out. Will she stand by her man again or has Joe lost Gail for good this time?
As George (Anthony Valentine) and Eve (Sabina Franklyn) leave the Barlows’ tea party George is short with Peter (Chris Gascoyne) and Leane (Jane Danson) after learning about their dodgy pasts.

Steve (Simon Gregson) and Dev (Jimmi Harkishin) are gutted to learn that their guest memberships at the golf club have expired. When the secretary then tells them that there’s one full membership available they agree to play a deciding round to determine who gets it.
And when Eileen (Sue Cleaver) reveals the surprise limo ride she’s organised for Jesse’s (John Thompson) birthday she’s less than impressed to hear he always spends his big day with his parents.
