Stephen begins the week by convincing the locals that he's still Mr Nice Guy. He finds Rita Tanner (Barbara Knox) struggling with some charity shop bags and offers to take them in mum Audrey Roberts's (Sue Nicholls) car, leaving Jenny Connor (Sally Ann Matthews) impressed by his kindness. But in the Rovers, Stephen confides in sister Gail Rodwell (Helen Worth) that he's worried Elaine Jones (Paula Wilcox) might be reading too much into their friendship. Teddy overhears this and joins their table, leaving Stephen relieved and Elaine let down over the intrusion.

Later, Teddy tells Stephen that he overheard his chat with Gail and decided to come to his rescue. Grateful Stephen offers to get the drinks in - but he panics when Teddy suddenly remembers something about his accident. Meanwhile, Elaine tells son Tim Metcalfe (Joe Duttine) that she lent Stephen £12k but he's now cooled towards her. Jenny's ears prick up, while Tim is horrified. Teddy agrees to abandon his trip and Stephen is pleased.

But when Billy Mayhew's (Daniel Brocklebank) words trigger a new memory for Teddy, the latter approaches Stephen and reveals he now remembers everything. He accuses Stephen of harming Leo, and Stephen leads Teddy into the factory to 'talk'. Teddy accuses Stephen of stopping him from going to Canada because he killed Leo to keep Jenny for himself. As Teddy vows to go to the police, Stephen whacks him over the head, killing him. How will he cover his tracks this time?

Esther returns and demands to know what's going on, and while she calls an ambulance Mike spins her a tale about the teen backing out of their surrogacy plan.

He lies that he detained Summer to try and change her mind, but when nurse Aggie Bailey (Lorna Laidlaw) hears Mike giving a false name for Summer at the hospital, she calls Billy. He and Paul arrive, demanding answers - and they're furious when a police officer later tells them that Mike and Esther have accused Summer of lying about being pregnant in order to extort their money. Todd Grimshaw (Gareth Pierce) and Paul are shocked to find Mike at Summer's bedside, and an angry Paul goes after Mike when he leaves.
