Plot[]
Part One: Joe receives a text from Dr Crowley saying he's ready and waiting. Gina arrives at the depot and receives a text from Joe wanting her to message him when she is done. Ella has spent the night at the B&B and informs Manpreet she will be leaving for good today. Ruby finds Steph looking at a photo of Anthony and encourages her to delete it. Steph tells her it won't help as every time she looks in the mirror all she can see is him. Sarah persuades Cain to let Kammy work on air filters at the garage then tells Kammy she has already done them. Cain picks up Chas and gives her a lift when her car is in the garage. Joe summons Dawn to Dale View, attempting to explain things to her. She accuses him of playing with her emotions and wants him to leave her alone. Steph admits to Ruby that she keeps seeing Anthony each time she looks at her reflection now. Ruby tells her that she is nothing like Anthony, saying she shares all of the characteristics that make up her and Caleb. When Steph asks how it made Ruby feel to have her moment to tell Anthony how he made her feel and she admits it felt good, Ruby realises Steph may need a similar moment herself. Joe informs Dawn that he broke things off because he was scared as he is falling in love with her and knows that she is with him. They kiss. Caleb meets with his Gina, his prospective new client. When Caleb leaves to get her a drink, she slips something in his tea.
Part Two: Caleb returns and he and Gina toast the future. Joe suggests to Dawn that they move away from the village but she isn't keen saying her and the kids' life is here and they would want to see Billy. Ruby and Steph go to Anthony's burial site. Steph pours coffee on the ground and tells him to rot in hell. Joe is concerned when Gina arrives to see him and Dr Crowley rather than messaging him. Ruby returns home to find Caleb has spilled tea all down his shirt. He searches for paracetamol, having developed a headache. Steph searches on her phone for plastic surgeons in Leeds. Joe loses his temper with Dr Crowley when he insists that Joe needs the operation tomorrow otherwise they may not be able to book another session for weeks and Joe's kidney is unlikely to function for that long. He intends to find a way to sort the problem. Kammy and Sarah finish work on Chas' car. Ella packs her stuff into her car to leave as Chas, Cain, Manpreet, Sarah and Kammy watch on. Ella tells Chas that she's poison and she hopes that one day her world comes crashing down around her like hers has. Chas is pleased to see her go. Joe meets Shaun in the woods and presents him with a flick knife. They agree to meet in the morning and Joe warns Shaun not to mess it up or it could be the last thing either of them ever do.
