Episode 6438 (1st January 2013)

Plot
Declan is itching to get back to work and Katie encourages him. However, Megan fears that Declan has got his priorities wrong and struggles to convince him to spend time with Katie. Robbie wants to know what Megan is going to do about getting the money back from Declan, but she is unsure whether she should be playing those kind of games with her brother.

Later, Katie is left feeling insecure and worried when Sam confirms that Declan is upset with everything that is going on. She is hurt further when Megan explains that Declan is just grieving for the family he can't have, and Katie worries how they will get through it if he can't even be honest with her. It's clear that Declan does want kids after all but couldn't admit this to Katie.

Meanwhile, Moira and Cain wake up together and she is amused when he wants breakfast. They're happy to shut out the world as Moira says she doesn't care what anyone else thinks. Alone with Moira, Adam explains that he won't be there to pick up the pieces when it goes wrong. Zak later questions Cain about his intentions, knowing Moira could get hurt. He tells Cain that he could have a future with her if he treats her right.

Elsewhere, Dom is annoyed when Zak and Lisa infer that Belle's bad behaviour is down to Gemma. At the same time, Gemma is annoyed that Belle likes Luke, a boy she met at the party last night. As Gemma used to be involved with Luke, she thinks Belle should respect her by staying away from him.

Also, Jai is pleased to discover that Archie is being moved out of intensive care, while Edna secures a job at the factory.
