Plot[]

Part One: Vanessa arrives back with Isaac and warns Moira that Nate knows she has been to the doctors with him. Cain arrives to confront her. Liam comes to his senses and stops kissing Leyla. They jump apart as Mandy and Kerry arrive. Wendy struggles with watching Victoria with her grandson but not being able to hold him. Luke believes that if she does things on Victoria's terms she could have a relationship with him in future. She congratulates Victoria on the birth before leaving. Moira tells Cain that she fell asleep while Isaac was shouting for her through the night. Chas corrects her by noting that she actually passed out drunk. Cain is livid and refuses to let Moira have the kids again. Jai walks in on Kim and Al getting dressed in the office. Kim tells him they are over budget and need to hold a budget meeting. Liam returns home and Gabby presents him with a present from Bernice that arrived this morning from Australia. He opens it to find a pocket watch inscribed "separated by distance, united by love, Liam and Bernice forever". Leyla confides in Priya that she and Liam ended up kissing. She worries about making a fool of herself when Priya suggests she ask Liam how he feels about her. Aaron avoids holding Harry. Moira causes a scene as she follows Cain into the village and yells at him that he can't stop her from seeing the kids.

Part Two: Ellis is surprised to find Al having lunch with Kim. Al gets Kim to open up to him as she admits she feels like she is going to lose Jamie all over again following everything with Graham. Moira confronts Nate in the pub and accuses him of trying to ruin her sons' lives as well as her own. Wendy wants to give Harry the teddy bear that Lee used to have. Luke tells her that her idea is not appropriate and warns her to play things Victoria's way if she wants a chance of being in her grandson's life. Priya reveals to Liam that she knows about his kiss with Leyla. She encourages him to be honest with Leyla and tell her how he feels. Liam mistakenly thinks she is referring to Bernice. Matty comes round with some flowers for Victoria and find a gift basket on the doorstep. Victoria opens the card and discovers it is from Wendy who notes she would like to meet Harry when Victoria is ready and on her terms. Ellis tries to warn Al away from Kim but he dismisses him. Al convinces Kim to leave the budget meeting to him and Jai while she spends some time to herself. Sean tracks Al down to the pub. Cain thanks Nate for letting him know about Moira. Leyla bumps into Liam who breaks the news to her that he told Bernice about their kiss and now she has broken up with him. Victoria bumps into Luke who asks him to thank Wendy for the gifts. Jai finds Al taking money from the safe. He covers that it's for the window fitters who want cash payment for materials in advance for a discount. Moira obtains the contact details for Nate's mother, Cara, from his job application form. Matty returns and confronts her over getting drunk again, hearing how Cain took the kids back from Victoria. Moira texts Cara asking her to meet her urgently.
