Episode 2402 (13th August 1998)

Plot
Marlon is wrestling with his guilt. He knows that his own underhand dealings helped push Eric to the brink. Marlon's sworn to Eric he'll never breath a word of what happened last night, but when he meets girlfriend Lyn he breaks down and blurts out the whole sorry stow. Eric meanwhile has pulled himself together enough to sign over the wine bar to Kathy who knows nothing of the drama that unfolded on her premises. Laura and Lady Tara are plotting their next move to raise money to ease the cash crisis on the Oakwell Estate - but they could hardly imagine the hornet's nest they are about to stir. Ned and Roy tell Zoe that along with Kim they're going for blood tests to determine once and for all who baby James' father really was. And Scott astounds his family when he reveals he was discharged from the army on medical grounds - mental not physical!
