INT. LYNNE'S HOUSE - DAY
Amy is in Lynne's house, talking to Lynne's baby. Lynne watches on, keeping a close eye on Amy.
Amy: (to the baby, tearfully) I'll never see you again...this will be the last time I ever talk to you..
Lynne: (to Amy) Have you quite finished!?
Amy: (to Lynne) Why did you do it eh!?
Lynne: I had a change of heart..
Amy: I don’t understand though.. minutes before he was born you were calling him a “little sprog” and the next you’re playing the doting mother! That baby would have meant the world to me and Patrick!
Lynne: (scoffs) You..maybe..
Amy: What do you mean by that!?
Lynne: Don't make out like Patrick wanted the baby!
Amy: Of course he did, we both did!
Lynne: Then why did he pay me to keep the baby then eh!?
Amy: No, he wouldn't!
Lynne: I have the cheque if you really want to see it? So don’t pretend like he wanted the baby, because it was the least of his priorities! Now go on, clear off you loony cow!
Amy is left humiliated and angry by Lynne's revelation.

INT. RED RUM PUBLIC HOUSE - DAY
Patrick is in the pub unloading the crates, ready for another day of buisness. Amy marches into the room, a furious look on her face.
Patrick: Where the hell have you been!?
Amy launches at him like a mad woman.
Amy: How could you!? You *******!
Patrick steps away and tries to keep her off him.
Patrick: What are you flipping at me for woman!?
Amy: Lynne! The baby! You *******!
Patrick: Let me explain!
Amy: Yeah Paddy, bloody explain! I want to hear what lame excuse you think justifies what you've done!
Patrick: The whole situation was crazy! We needed to do it the right way...
Amy: Well I can't do it the right way can I!? I have can't have kids!
Patrick: Same as thousands of other women, but you don't see them buying babies! It's illegal! I didn't want you behind the bars, for the sake of some tramp's baby!
Amy: This isn't about that, it's about you not wanting kids!
Patrick: Yeah well, you can't force me into wanting something I don't want!
Amy: It's not about forcing, you should want what I want! That's what marraige is all about Patrick!
Patrick: Well I don't! Okay!?
Amy: Then I don't know where we can go from here...

Tanya has just finished packing her things.
Simon: What are you doing?
Tanya: I'm going home, all the work has finished on the manor.
Simon: But what about us?
Tanya: Nothing changes! But I can't stay here can I!?
Simon: Why not?
Tanya: Because Charlie can't find out yet!
Simon: Let her, she's old enough, she'll understand.
Tanya: The time’s not right, relate it to her and Scott, she’s stable at the moment, this would blow everything apart!
Simon: I don't know..
Tanya: Trust me, I'm always right.

INT. RED RUM PUBLIC HOUSE - DAY
Amy is packing her things. Patrick comes in, surprised at the scene he is seeing before him.
Patrick: What are you doing woman!?
Amy: I need to get away for a couple of days.
Patrick: Where are you going?
Amy: To mom and dad's to clear my head!
Patrick: But they live in bloody Portugal for christ's sake!
Amy: Patrick, if I stay here we’re gonna end up saying things that we’ll both regret! It’s obvious at the moment we can’t agree on anything, I need to get my head around things, decide what I want..
Patrick: That's marvellous! Deciding on whether you want me or not! :rolleyes:
Amy: I’ll always want you Patrick, but it’s more than just that, I have to consider the bigger picture.
Amy attempts to kiss Patrick goodbye, but he pulls away.

INT. RED RUM PUBLIC HOUSE - DAY
Patrick is stood behind the bar, he looks out of the front window and sees Amy getting into a black cab. He looks down at the floor to block the image out of his mind.
Moments later Claire walks over and wraps around him, to give him a supportive hug.
Claire: I wouldn't worry about it Patrick, it's for the best...
Patrick: How can her jetting off to Portugal be for the best? We should be facing our problems, not running away from them...
Claire: Is that what you want, a massize domestic? At the moment her head's unstable, she would probably end up walking out on you for good. And you don't want that do you?
Patrick: Maybe it's for the best...
Claire: You don't mean that Paddy.
Patrick: I just...can't see how how her leaving can do us any good.
Claire: Have faith in her, and your relationship. Trust me, everything will work out fine in the end...
Patrick doesn't share Claire's enthuasiasm, and remains downtrodden.

INT. JENKINS MANOR - DAY
Richard nervously walks up the gravelled driveway and towards the manor. He gets out his keys and opens the front door. He takes a deep breath before entering the manor.
He walks around, the place is newly furnished and decorated, the smell of paint is fresh in the air. As he explores the manor, he gets flashbacks of some of the most defining moments here: Ed's final speech to the Taylors, Richard and Hilary's wedding, Siobhan's Murder, Hilary's final showdown with them.
Nick and Vicky enter moments later, walking through the open front door.
Richard: Nick...
Nick: We thought you could do with some moral support...
Richard: It feels strange combing back here, it doesn't feel like my home anymore...
Nick: It'll always be your home.
Richard: I'm always gonna remember your mother here though...
Nick: Of course you will, just as you remember Ed and Doreen....but life goes on Dad, you'll soon get over it.
Richard remains low. Nick nudges Vicky, encouraging her to speak up.
Vicky: Actually Richard we came here to ask you something...I wondered if you would give me away at the wedding...
Richard: Vicky...I'm...it would be an honour..
Nick: I know it seems like there's not much of a future for the family at the moment Dad, but give it time. You've got 3 kids, one beautiful baby grandaughter, and the rest of you're life ahead of you...
Nick walks over to Richard and gives him a supportive hug. Richard begins to smile, a glimmer of hope...

EXT. NEWMAN'S HOUSE - DAY
Andonis knocks on the Newmans' front door. Hannah opens it, and steps out to speak to him.
Andonis: Hi, I just wondered if you wanted to meet up?
Hannah: I can't..
Andonis: Why? Have you gone off me or something!?
Hannah: No it's not that, you're great..
Andonis: But...?
Hannah: Jacqui isn't letting me out of the house..
Andonis: Why? What have you done?
Hannah: She found out that I told you about Lucy..
Andonis: That's my fault, I told my mom, and she told Val. I'm sorry, I didn't realise it was such a big deal.
Hannah: Don't worry about it, you weren't to know..
Andonis: She's overreacting isn't she!? Grounding you for that!
Hannah: My family is still sensitive about it, Jacqui doesn't want everyone knowing about it, her method of recovery is blocking it out!
Andonis: Well when are you going to be let out?
Hannah: I don't know..
Jacqui suddenly beeps the car horn.
Hannah: I'm sorry I have to go..
Hannah abruptly rushes off. Andonis is left alone.

Vicky is on the phone to Kyle's parents. She comes off the phone, distressed.
Nick: What's up?
Vicky: I just rang Kyle's parents. I tried to speak to Daniel to see if he was coming to the wedding, and Kyle's parents say that he doesn't want to come.
Nick: What!?
Vicky: According to them, he wants nothing to do with me!
Nick: Oh, now they are just lying!
Vicky: Are they though!? I mean, you saw what he was like with me when he found out about what happened with me and Kyle, he hates me Nick!
Nick: Come on! I doubt that very much!
Vicky: Then why doesn’t he want to speak to me!? Why doesn’t he want to come to the wedding!?
Nick: Maybe he just needs more time..
Vicky: I want him at our wedding Nick! It wouldn’t seem right without him!
Nick: What are you saying?
Vicky: I don’t know if I can go ahead with it without him…
