Fiz goes a step to far in her hopeless search.  Fiz shows Weatherfield Police the passports and ferry tickets, convinced Jade has abducted Hope.  Back at the house Fiz finds Jade there without Hope, assuming the worst she picks up a chopping board and hits her over the head with it.  Tyrone walks in to find Jade out cold on the floor and Fiz standing over her.

Bethany sees a new side to Ray.  Ray explains to Bethany that he chose Alya over her because of her experience and offers Bethany the title of Head Waitress.  Bethany is underwhelmed, confiding in Carla that she finds Ray a bit sleazy.  Carla tells her how Ray came onto Michelle and then made her sign a gagging order causing Bethany to be appalled.

Tim is forced to go begging.  Charlie returns to Sally & Tim's with her bags and explains she has been evicted.  Tim is horrified as he’s forced to tell Abi that Charlie is his wife and he doesn’t know how to get rid of her.  Tim calls at Kevin’s with some beers, however when it becomes clear that Tim is simply after a loan to get shut of Charlie, Kevin chucks him out.

Meanwhile, scared to go home in case of a repeat attack, Gemma is chuffed when FreshCo offer to put them up in a hotel.  Gemma urges Paul to put his ordeal with Kel behind him for everyone’s sake.

Elsewhere, as Maria and Gary proudly show off their scan photo, Sarah and Adam make snide remarks.
