After his unsuccessful attempt to get Audrey to sign over her money, Stephen keeps up a pretence as he helps out at the factory office.

But Stephen puts her off by offering to do it himself. Later, Sarah reveals she phoned Lorenzo after all, only to learn that he\u2019s owed six months\u2019 wages.<\/p>\n

Stephen lies that he withheld Lorenzo\u2019s wages because he caught him embezzling money from the company. Stephen works with young great-nephew Max Turner (Paddy Bever) on the website and Sarah is impressed. But how long will it be before Stephen\u2019s fibs are uncovered, as he\u2019s clearly no longer as wealthy as he says he is?<\/p>\n

When Zeedan hears from Craig that the detective Stu accused of persecution took early retirement under false pretences, he asks him to find out more. Zeedan and his gran, Yasmeen Metcalfe (Shelley King) receive letters from incarcerated Stu, who begs them to visit him. But while Yasmeen rips them up and throws them away, Zeedan continues to try and dig deeper into Stu\u2019s story that he didn\u2019t kill the young girl. Craig reveals that Stu could be released from prison soon, and Zeedan heads to see him. Stu tells Zeedan about his case files, planning to prove his innocence.<\/p>\n

So Zeedan talks to solicitor Adam Barlow (Sam Robertson) to request Stu\u2019s files \u2013\u00a0but Yasmeen is not happy when Adam reveals he\u2019s put in for the request. Poor Yasmeen suffers a panic attack when she delivers a speech on domestic abuse to her fundraiser guests, and when she later confronts Zeedan over his betrayal, Stu calls him. He begs to speak to Yasmeen, who ends the call straight away.<\/p>\n

Zeedan doesn\u2019t give up and meets with Adam, who explains that accessing Stu\u2019s case files will cost \u00a31,200.

When Summer calls to see Aaron at the garage, she finds him with a fat lip and he hurries away. When she catches up with him, he snaps at her. But later Aaron apologises to Summer, revealing what\u2019s behind his behaviour and his awful injuries. His dad is an alcoholic who has been physically abusing him, although Aaron describes him as occasionally lashing out.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s clear that Aaron is a vulnerable young man, but will he be able to escape from the horrific home life? Might we eventually be introduced to his father and be able to see for ourselves what he has to deal with? Wherever this storyline is going, it\u2019s starting to sound like being with Summer might not be the best thing for him right now\u2026<\/p>

Summer\u2019s A Level results are a mixed bag as she gets A*s in French and Maths, but a fail for English after being disqualified for cheating. When Aaron arrives to collect her for their holiday, Summer collapses once more, panicking poor Aaron. When she wakes up, she tells him that she accidentally forgot to take her insulin. The pair are later heading home from the tram station as they bump into Todd Grimshaw (Gareth Pierce), and they explain that they\u2019ve missed their flight.<\/p>\n

At the flat, Aaron looks through Summer\u2019s bag and is left shocked by what he finds. But what discovery has he made? With both teens caught up in their own respective issues, are they as good together as they first appeared to be?<\/p>\n

When protester Griff introduces himself to Toyah, Spider is uneasy as she invites herself along to their demo. After the protest, Spider tries to persuade Toyah to steer clear of Griff, as he is a loose cannon and she could put her bail at risk. Although it seems that Spider is genuinely trying to look out for Toyah, we know he\u2019s definitely hiding something.<\/p>\n

And Leanne is angry as she warns Spider about leading her sister astray. As she predicts that Toyah is heading for disaster, are her instincts correct? And will we ever find out what Spider is really up to? That seems a certainty \u2013\u00a0this is soapland, after all<\/a>!<\/p>\n
