The arrival of a guest at the Beales' highlights the tension between Ian and Denise, Kat continues with her plan, and the market traders band together to face an impending threat.

A small, inconspicuous notice is put up regarding the consultation period about the market closure and announcing a public meeting at 10.30am. Jane鈥檚 attention鈥檚 drawn to the sign when she bumps into Aleks and he mentions he鈥檚 on council business. Denise鈥檚 surprised when Jane arrives to stay; Ian hasn鈥檛 told anyone but Bobby that she鈥檚 coming to Bobby鈥檚 interschool spelling bee. Jane mentions the market consultation meeting and Ian denies knowing anything about it. Peter and Denise spread the word about the meeting. Aleks鈥� confident people won鈥檛 realise the meeting鈥檚 happening and is annoyed when lots of locals and traders turn up. Aleks tells the traders if the Bridge Street market closes, stalls will be made available at Spring Lane but will be allocated on his recommendation. No-one鈥檚 convinced by Aleks waffle about a feasibility study about the impact on the area. Mick invites everyone back to the Vic to plan the fight ahead. Jane asks Ian if everything鈥檚 alright between him and Denise, he claims they鈥檙e fine. Still convinced something鈥檚 wrong, Jane tells Denise she鈥檚 heading back to Cardiff after the spelling bee because she doesn鈥檛 want to make things worse. Denise confesses to Jane that she kissed someone; Jane advises her to tell Ian the truth. Jane mans the restaurant kitchen so Ian and Denise can talk. Denise admits to Ian she kissed someone at the engagement party. A worried Fatboy tries to interrupt them and Denise claims it was a guy at the B&B. She says sorry and Ian thanks her for telling him the truth. In turn, he apologises for messing things up. They agree that they both still want to get married. Ian鈥檚 grateful to Jane and insists Iain鈥檚 a lucky guy. At the spelling Bee, Ian tells Bobby if he makes Jane proud, she鈥檒l realise what she鈥檚 missing and they鈥檒l see more of her.

Linda鈥檚 thrilled when Mick hands over her belated valentine鈥檚 present - tickets to Les Mis茅rables. A new official licensee sign has been put up outside the Vic with Shirley鈥檚 name alongside Mick and Linda鈥檚. Mick attends the council meeting and later tells Linda to get ready for a fight - they鈥檙e manning the barricades of freedom. Aunt Babe arrives to help in the bar whilst Mick and Linda go to the theatre and informs the family Lady Di is clearly pregnant.

Alfie quickly pockets a letter that arrives for him from Australia. Kat claims the letter she鈥檚 writing to Stacey鈥檚 a shopping list. Kat forgets her handbag and Alfie finds the withered red rose Luke gave Kat inside it. Suspicious, Alfie looks for Kat at the stall then visits Max. Alfie鈥檚 suspicions increase when Max rings Kat鈥檚 phone as soon as Alfie鈥檚 left the car lot. Later, Alfie sees Max and Kat sneaking off together. Kat shows Max the letter she鈥檚 written Stacey. Max insists he鈥檚 staying out of it. Kat鈥檚 worried that Stacey鈥檚 living a lie but Max鈥檚 adamant that it鈥檚 Stacey鈥檚 life. Kat joins Alfie at the consultation meeting but ignores his question about where she鈥檚 been. During the meeting, Alfie makes a speech about lies. Kat disappears again and leaves a letter in Luke and 鈥楯enny鈥檚鈥� letterbox. When Kat returns home Alfie confronts her about where she鈥檚 been, where she was on Valentine鈥檚 Day and the flower -is she seeing Max? Kat apologises and confesses that it鈥檚 Stacey. Kat tells Alfie he can鈥檛 be paranoid for the rest of his life. Alfie鈥檚 about to admit something to Kat about his time in Australia when the doorbell rings, interrupting them; an angry Stacey鈥檚 on the doorstep.

Shabnam wants Tamwar and Masood to attend a fundraiser for the mosque with her and thinks Masood needs to smarten up. On his post round, Masood鈥檚 delighted to see Jane and suggests they catch up. Admitting he has been ashamed of himself and has let himself go, Masood lets Shabnam help him shave. He confesses he鈥檚 been lonely since Zainab left; Shabnam runs out of the room in tears when Masood suggests he鈥檚 not going to be lonely with his smart new look.
