Bradley drops a bombshell on Max
Christian stares with a satisfied smile at the cot he's built for baby Amy. Linda, however, isn't impressed by his intentions. She questions whether he actually knows what brining up a child entails, but Christian is adamant – whatever he does for baby Amy will be a lot better than his own upbringing. When Roxy turns up at the flat, Chrisitian's excited to show her the cot he's built, but Roxy has other things on her mind. She reluctantly tells him that she's back together with Sean but realises how much he was prepared to give up for her. As she leaves, Christian is visibly heartbroken and won't let Linda comfort him.

As Roxy and Sean sit next to baby Amy, Sean tells his wife how much this all means to him. It's at that point that Roxy suggests they change Amy's surname to Slater. At Christian's flat, Linda walks in
on him in a clinch with Sebastian and she's not happy. Linda announces that she's going to pack her things, but Christian quickly asks Sebastian to leave.

Meanwhile, Max lies awake in his hospital bed after being woken from his coma. He has so much on his mind. Abi's excited by the news that her dad has woken up and wants to see him. Lauren, meanwhile, is a little less enthusiastic. With Max sitting up in bed, he turns on the Branning charm and asks the nurse to help him make a phone call. Calling Bradley, he leaves him a voicemail pleading that he visits. On the Square, Bradley and Jack speculate as to the state of Max's mind and wonder what he remembers from the accident. He suggests that Bradley tell Max what Tanya's done. At the hospital, Bradley edges into Max's room.

Max apologises to Bradley for his actions before the accident and claims that it's been the wake up call he's needed for a long while to put things right with his son. Still resentful, he tells Max that he wished he never woke up, before walking out. However, after a change of heart, Bradley walks back on to the ward and puts a blanket around his dad to make him more comfortable. As Max thanks Bradley for reconsidering, Bradley drops a bombshell and tells Max that it was Tanya who tried to kill him. Max is shell-shocked.

Elsewhere, Whitney quizzes Bianca as to her whereabouts last night; Tanya's finding prison life difficult, while her cell mate Nina tries to reassure her that everything will be OK; Bianca meets with a guy called Jonas; Nina suggests that Tanya still loves Max; Shirley goes to Booty for her free day of treatments; and Whitney's jealous when Tony invites Lauren over for tea.
