David is hurt by Maria's rejection and gets revenge by telling everyone Charlie tried to drown him - before making an outrageous claim to the police. Kelly thinks love is in the air when she joins the Connors for drinks; while Les tries to talk Chesney into coming home.

Tracy is released on bail and returns to the Street, where she hears about David's claims - prompting her to wonder what he actually saw. Meanwhile, Liam makes a move on Joanne; Cilla and Les appear to have blown their chances with Chesney; and Roy discovers a stash of valuable comics.

Michelle introduces Sonny to Sean - who is astonished to discover the man he knows as Sondip has a double life. Cilla has to face the impact of her lies when she's called to Chesney's school; and a friend of Rita's arrives on the Street, leaving Norris feeling put out.

Sean confronts Sonny, who tells him Michelle doesn't need to know about his past relationships - or sexuality. Upset by all the lies, the barman confides in Steve. Fiz is sympathetic as Cilla admits to being a bad parent; and Tracy turns to an old flame when she needs a shoulder to cry on.

Blanche interferes in Tracy's love life, inadvertently leading her granddaughter into a romantic encounter with Steve; Sean warns Sonny he intends to tell Michelle everything; and Kelly remains oblivious to Joanne's relationship with Liam, convinced she's the one who has caught his eye.
