Doug worries that Laurel is setting her self up for heartbreak with Ashley's illness. Ross thinks he and Emma should tells James about what's going on, but Emma reveals that Charity has her over a barrel as she was the one who hid Noah when he went missing. Chrissie and Andy flirt. Emma explains she only got Ross on the birth certificate because of hiding Noah, and tells Ross she'll have to give Charity the money. Ross is adamant she shouldn't and he resolves to sort it out himself. Moira is upset as Noah moves in with Charity at The Woolpack, meanwhile Harriet agrees to go on another date with Daniel.
