Cain lashes out at Michael

Cain tries to comfort a gutted Debbie and he can't hide his rage toward Michael for the way he's treated her. When Michael arrives in the village to see her, a furious Cain attacks him, slamming him against his car and warning him to stay away from Debbie. Unnerved, Michael makes to leave but Cain's still fuming and punches him as he turns to go.

Debbie's unsettled when Cain reveals that he beat Michael up and assures that he'll be sorry if he ever shows up again. However, later that night, Debbie's alone at home when Michael sneaks in to see her. She's torn as he declares that he can't walk away from her, but she remains impassive.

When he leaves, he tells her that he's staying at a hotel in town and will be there until tomorrow afternoon - if she doesn't turn up to see him, he'll know she doesn't want him. Will Debbie succumb to her feelings and go to the hotel?

Meanwhile, Chas tries to convince herself that she's doing Paddy a favour by not telling him about her one-night stand with Carl. However, when Paddy returns from his course with flowers and chocolates, her heart melts and she feels absolutely terrible.

Overcome with both guilt and affection for him, she finds it difficult to lie and later feels very uncomfortable when Carl's in the pub later that day.

Terrified of Paddy finding out, Chas follows Carl out of the pub after seeing them talking. Carl assures her that he hasn't said anything but reminds her that their feelings won't go away. Carl's frustrated and Chas is in turmoil - how long can they hide their secret from Paddy?
