PlotEdit

As Frank's trial begins, Carla is unnerved by his composure. However, bolstered by Peter's presence, she's determined that justice will be done. In the witness box, Carla's emotional as she tells the court how Frank raped her. When she's then questioned by Frank's defence lawyer about her relationship with Peter, Carla is uncomfortable but insists they're just friends. With Anne and Sally waiting for the bombshell of Carla and Peter's affair to be revealed, they're surprised when Frank's barrister doesn't mention the photographs of Peter and Carla kissing. Frank tells them he didn't tell her and that he plans to use them to his advantage in other ways. Meanwhile, when Milton insists on visiting Roy's famous restaurant, Sylvia panics and lies that he runs the Bistro. Milton's impressed by the Bistro, but when it becomes clear that Roy isn't the owner, Sylvia confesses that Roy owns a humble cafe. Elsewhere, with Steve cajoled into letting Tracy and Amy stay at Number 13, Tracy's determined to prove to Steve that they can work things out, while Jason fumes as Paul appears for breakfast again - but Julie makes it clear to her sister that she'll be there for her when it all goes pear-shaped!
