It’s the day of the inquest investigating the petrol station shooting. Sam is nervous and on the way to court he punches a photographer. He confesses to George that the gun Murphy had was a water pistol and that Harry Haddock and the boys at Newbridge covered for him. George tells him he has to tell the truth in court but Sam fails to. Bob holds Stevens ring whilst he is talking to him. As he takes the ring off his finger Steven goes into cardiac arrest. Only when Bob places the ring back on his finger does Steven begin to breathe again. Later on that day Elly receives a shock when she sees Steven without his bandages for the first time. Meanwhile Penny and Jamie are subjected to marriage counselling and are surprised when the counsellor tells them they are the most compatible couple she’s ever met.
