[[Biff Fowler|Biff]] apologises to [[Linda Fowler|Linda]] for his behaviour and admits that disappearing wasn't a good idea but says that it had given him time to reflect on his situation. He says that if he did have the disease they would have to handle it but when Linda replies that she’s pleased he’s finally facing up to things, Biff tells her that she has to face up to things too and determinedly tells her that the baby would have to have the test too, with the possibility of a termination if its positive. Linda was appalled and tells him that the very idea that he could even think about ending their baby's life disgusts her before storming off. Later, she tells [[Zoe Tate|Zoe]] about her pregnancy, but doesn't share in Zoe's delight about it and requests a chat with her in [[the Woolpack]] at lunchtime. [[Betty Eagleton|Betty]]’s annoyed at the mess in the bar from the previous evening and is horrified when [[Alan Turner|Alan]] tells her that [[the Woolpackers]] would be playing regular gigs at the pub because it has been a huge success. She refuses to clean the bar and quits. Alan is disappointed about Betty's departure as she was so reliable and wonders to [[Terry Woods|Terry]] if there is any way to persuade her to return. Alan's suggests doing a little remedial tidying up but Terry finds the notion of cleaning up for the cleaner amusing and strange. When Betty returns home, she finds a dishevelled [[Paddy Kirk|Paddy]] on her doorstep who asks her if he could have a bath at her house as he spent the night in [[Dingle family|the Dingles]]’ pig-pen. She’s mortified that he still carries a torch for [[Mandy Dingle|Mandy]], but he tells her that the torch had been well and truly extinguished. In the pub, Mandy complains to [[Charlotte Cairns|Charlie]] about Paddy's remarks, but Charlie’s amused by them. Paddy tries to apologise but Mandy tells him that she has nothing to say to him. He’s persistent, telling her that he was only having a laugh and hadn't meant it to go so far. He says that he only came back to [[Emmerdale, Yorkshire Dales National Park|Emmerdale]] because he really cared about her but before she could reply, [[Butch Dingle|Butch]] and [[Marlon Dingle|Marlon]] interrupt and tells him to stay away from Mandy and leave the village. When there’s no answer from Mandy to Paddy's inquiry as to whether she would like to see him again, he leaves but Mandy rushes after him. At the bus stop, she asks him when he’ll back and the two kiss before Paddy boards the bus, promising he’ll return. Sophie arrives at [[Home Farm]] with [[James Tate|James]] to find the place locked up and they return to Zoe's [[Smithy Cottage|cottage]] to await her arrival. When Zoe arrives home, she’s determined that she should go straight to Home Farm and tell her [[Frank Tate|father]] how things went on the trip but Sophie tries unsuccessfully to stay so they can have a chat. Outside Home Farm in the car, Sophie’s upset at Zoe's apparent rejection of her and questions her about it. Zoe makes it clear that she doesn't want to ruin Sophie's life as Emmerdale is a very hard place to come out in and also cites her father's displeasure the idea of a relationship, but Sophie’s unwilling to accept the excuses. When Zoe and Sophie enter Home Farm, Zoe finds Frank lying on the floor and shouts to Sophie to call an ambulance. Frank utters [[Kim Tate|Kim]]'s name and slips away. [[Kathy Glover|Kathy]] decides to go and visit [[Nick Bates|Nick]] to find out the truth about [[Karen Johnson|Karen]] and is determined that she won't let [[Alice Bates|Alice]] go anywhere near her. On her return, she tells [[Dee de la Cruz|Dee]] that everything Karen had said was true and regardless of what happened to Nick, she would be Alice's stepmother and it was Nick's wish for Alice to live with Karen. Kathy tells Dee that she went been to see her solicitor and admits that even though she was appalled at the prospect of taking her own brother to court over his daughter, she felt she had to do it because Alice was all she had left. [[Emma Cairns|Emma]] continues to be taunted by the bullies but [[Dean Adlington|Dean]] and [[Will Cairns|Will]] leap to her defence. [[Andy Hopwood|Andy]] is worried about returning to [[Hotten County Primary School|school]] and tries to feign illness, but [[Sarah Sugden|Sarah]] sees straight through it and both her and [[Jack Sugden|Jack]] were adamant that he goes. Jack’s worried about Andy having to cope with [[Viv Windsor|Viv]] and [[Donna Windsor|Donna]] on his back and concedes to Sarah and [[Rachel Hughes|Rachel]] in the Woolpack that he’s worried that Andy is too much to handle, but Sarah is determined that they are not going to give up on him. Rachel tells Charlie what she thinks of her and suggests that the only reason why she threw herself at [[Steve Marchant|Steve]] the previous evening was because she was after his money. Charlie, however, retorts that Rachel is only jealous. Linda discovers what had happened to Frank when she goes to find Zoe at Home Farm and asks her why she had stood her up at lunchtime. She announces Frank's death in the Woolpack, a piece of news that gains mixed reaction. Alan is shocked and saddened, but Jack is delighted. Sophie blames herself for not trying the back door that morning as it had been unlocked but Zoe said that she wasn't to know that. As Frank is taken away, a distraught Zoe’s angry that even after everything Kim had done to him, hers was the last name on his lips. She is incredulous when [[DI Cooke]] arrives. Zoe berates Cooke, accusing her of causing her father's death by hounding him and putting him in prison. When Cooke suggests it may have been suicide, Zoe’s irate that she would even dare suggest it and despite her protestations that she was only doing her job, Zoe tells her that Frank was innocent and hopes that Cooke has sleepless nights for the rest of her life. Zoe’s worried that she doesn't know what to feel and Sophie worries that she shouldn't be trying to organise everything because she’s still in shock. Later, when [[Anthony Cairns|Tony]] comes to collect the deposit they paid for the chalet he puts his foot in it by asking what her excuse is for being bad tempered. That evening, Sophie tells Zoe that they would look after James together, but Zoe's very upset at the thought that Frank had been lying alone in pain for so long and breaks down in tears.

After last night's performance by the re-formed [[The Woolpackers|Woolpackers]], [[Betty Eagleton|Betty]] is less than impressed with the state of the [[The Woolpack|pub]]. [[Biff Fowler|Biff]] tells [[Linda Fowler|Linda]] how worried he is about his upcoming tests. [[Kathy Glover|Kathy]] has got herself all worked up at the thought of losing [[Alice Bates|Alice]] to [[Nick Bates|Nick]]'s new fiancee but [[Eric Pollard|Eric]] is skeptical. After having to watch newcomer [[Charlie Cairns|Charlie]] getting to grips with strapping [[Steve Marchant|Steve]] last night, jealous [[Rachel Hughes|Rachel]] has some strong words for her. At [[Home Farm]], [[Zoe Tate|Zoe]] has returned to make the heart-breaking discovery that [[Frank Tate|Frank]] has collapsed. She finds Frank lying on the floor and kneels down by his side. Frank manages to utter [[Kim Tate|Kim]]'s name before passing away.

Plot

Biff apologises to Linda for his behaviour and admits that disappearing wasn't a good idea but says that it had given him time to reflect on his situation. He says that if he did have the disease they would have to handle it but when Linda replies that she’s pleased he’s finally facing up to things, Biff tells her that she has to face up to things too and determinedly tells her that the baby would have to have the test too, with the possibility of a termination if its positive. Linda was appalled and tells him that the very idea that he could even think about ending their baby's life disgusts her before storming off. Later, she tells Zoe about her pregnancy, but doesn't share in Zoe's delight about it and requests a chat with her in the Woolpack at lunchtime. Betty’s annoyed at the mess in the bar from the previous evening and is horrified when Alan tells her that the Woolpackers would be playing regular gigs at the pub because it has been a huge success. She refuses to clean the bar and quits. Alan is disappointed about Betty's departure as she was so reliable and wonders to Terry if there is any way to persuade her to return. Alan's suggests doing a little remedial tidying up but Terry finds the notion of cleaning up for the cleaner amusing and strange. When Betty returns home, she finds a dishevelled Paddy on her doorstep who asks her if he could have a bath at her house as he spent the night in the Dingles’ pig-pen. She’s mortified that he still carries a torch for Mandy, but he tells her that the torch had been well and truly extinguished. In the pub, Mandy complains to Charlie about Paddy's remarks, but Charlie’s amused by them. Paddy tries to apologise but Mandy tells him that she has nothing to say to him. He’s persistent, telling her that he was only having a laugh and hadn't meant it to go so far. He says that he only came back to Emmerdale because he really cared about her but before she could reply, Butch and Marlon interrupt and tells him to stay away from Mandy and leave the village. When there’s no answer from Mandy to Paddy's inquiry as to whether she would like to see him again, he leaves but Mandy rushes after him. At the bus stop, she asks him when he’ll back and the two kiss before Paddy boards the bus, promising he’ll return. Sophie arrives at Home Farm with James to find the place locked up and they return to Zoe's cottage to await her arrival. When Zoe arrives home, she’s determined that she should go straight to Home Farm and tell her father how things went on the trip but Sophie tries unsuccessfully to stay so they can have a chat.
