Later, Kit Green is shocked to see Gemma being brought into the police station having been arrested for stealing the shoes. With Gemma not knowing Kit is Bernie's secret son, her mum begs him to do what he can to secure Gemma’s release.

Kit then calls at the shoe shop and explains to Bruce that he’s here about the shoplifting incident, but can he get Gemma off? Meanwhile, Gemma is intrigued to know why Kit wanted to help her and introduces him to Chesney and the kids. But whilst there Kit gets a shocking call from his dad.

Elsewhere, Dee-Dee and Ed Bailey meet up with Joel's parents, Anthea and Gus, for lunch in the bistro. Anthea apologises for their earlier behaviour and Dee-Dee’s pleasantly surprised. But when Amy Barlow lets slip that Joel and Dee-Dee are engaged, Anthea and Gus are taken aback.

Meanwhile, Sabrina Adetib's mate reckons Joel's a creep and she should steer well clear and Sabrina realises she's been naïve. But later, while Dee-Dee gets ready for their engagement lunch, Joel furtively takes a call from Sabrina’s mate, telling him he has to meet her or he’ll regret it. What do they want?

Also, Tim Metcalfe puts pressure on Steve McDonald to agree to a night out to celebrate his 50th. But when Sally Metcalfe shows Tim an invitation to the unveiling of Tommy Orpington's bronze bust at the Weatherfield County ground, Tim’s gutted to realise it clashes with Steve’s fiftieth.

However, when Tim tells Steve he can no longer go on the night out with him Steve assumes a surprise party is being planned. Later, Sally calls at the cab office and tells Tim she’s off to town to buy a new outfit for tomorrow. Steve listens, more convinced than ever that Tim’s planning a surprise party for him.

Meanwhile, when Amy reveals that Tracy’s cancelled her visit and she’s staying in Spain, Steve’s secretly gutted, putting his plans to win her back up in smoke. In the Rovers, Steve quizzes Cassie Plummer, Kevin Webster and Tyrone Dobbs about his surprise party. They deny all knowledge and Steve smiles to himself, convinced they’re bluffing.

And speaking of Kevin, he confides in Tyrone that Stefan Brent has agreed to pay to take down the deep fake videos. But soon after, Stefan tells Kevin that the deal is off as he’s not willing to pay the £60,000 per year to take the videos down. Later, when in the Roers, Abi explains to Kevin that she needs to get away for a few days and she’s going to stay with Lynsey and the twins. As Abi heads out, Kevin does his best to remain positive.
