Fiz rushes back to the hospital where Hope's taken a turn for the worse. She is upset to see her daughter is back on a ventilator. Sean and Julie congratulate Eileen on beating Owen and vow to find her a new job. Gary arrives home and breaks the news of his dismissal from the army to his parents. Anna's horrified that he's destroyed his future and slaps his face. Cheryl begs Lloyd not to implicate Chris in the robbery for Russ's sake. A policeman informs him that Billy's been arrested but not his accomplice. Lloyd keeps schtum. The factory girls suggest that Eileen could join Underworld. She approaches Carla who gives her a post in the packing department. Eileen's delighted. Dr Carter informs Fiz that hospital is the best place for John due to his severe depression. Deirdre's upset when Tracy is snubbed by everyone in the Rovers. Tracy suffers a further blow when Carla informs her that there is no longer a job for her at the factory. Cheryl coolly tells Chris that Lloyd did not drop him in it with the police. Chris's relief is cut short when Cheryl announces she's divorcing him for unreasonable behaviour.
