Plot[]
Part One: Owen makes his displeasure with Gary clear over his relationship with Alya. Carla gives Simon a designer keyring for the school auction. Kal sacks Gary from his building work at the gym. Having won the auction for No.6, the Nazirs start to clean up prior to moving in. Amy is upset that she only has buns made by Tracy for the auction and even less pleased that Simon has the keyring. Callum continues to ring Kylie but she tells him to leave her alone. Eva's not enamoured when an ebullient, glamorous woman in her fifties bursts into the Rovers. Liz though is thrilled to recognise her friend Erica Holroyd from Spain and agrees she can stay for a few weeks over Christmas. Sean invites Billy for tea at No.11. Izzy is not pleased to be spending the day at the factory with Alya. Callum texts Kylie who makes an excuse that her phone has packed up and leaves the salon. Audrey and Maria are amused when Luke tries to help out at the salon hoping for an invite to their staff Christmas meal. Kal apologises to Leanne for losing his temper with her. Leanne passes a message on to Gary to meet Alya in the cafe. David catches Kylie heading for the bus. She's forced to admit that her dealer's hassling her so she's going to buy a new phone to cut contact. David's dubious.
Part Two: As Ken is ill with a cold, Carla agrees to accompany Simon to the auction. Yasmeen worries that Kal's ham-fisted manner of tackling Gary and Alya's relationship will only push them closer together. Liz tells Tony how many times Erica has been to her rescue when she was in Spain. Kal offers Gary's job to Owen. Izzy and Katy leave the cafe when Gary and Alya walk in. Yasmeen interrupts them and urges Alya to take things slowly, rather than rebel against Kal. Carla is unnerved when Tracy offers to walk to school with her. Arriving back with her new phone, Kylie's desperate to convince David she's clean but she's stunned to see that the last client of the day is Callum...
