Episode 3095 (21st January 2002)

Plot
Emily agonises over whether she should give Paddy the letter that his mother wrote shortly before her death. Unable to decide what to do, she shows the letter to Jason. He admits that it sounds like a suicide note, and suggests that Paddy has a right to see it. Emily plucks up the courage to show Paddy the letter. But she has second thoughts when he reveals that the only thing holding him together is his belief that his mother didn't take her own life, because she would have left a suicide note. Marlon is furious to discover that Tricia has changed the locks on Kathy's house and is intending on claiming squatter's rights. Exasperated by her behaviour, he threatens to move out, but will the pair be able to resolve their differences before it is too late? Jason is left in a quandary when he is offered a new job in Leeds. Scott can't understand why he is so reluctant to take the job and is surprised when Jason explains that he doesn't want to leave Latisha and Kirk. Jason is concerned to hear that Latisha has racked up a huge bill with the catalogue company, and offers to pay her debts. Betty's suspicion that Seth is having an affair continues to eat away at her. She decides to follow him to his bowling match, and is left heartbroken by the scene that awaits her. Maggie sabotages Nicola's plans to become the face of the Holiday Village, by suggesting to Rodney that Chloe would be a better choice.
