The day after the engagement party, Tricia admits she can’t face getting out of bed to go to work. Looking out of the window she can see her mum's car, still parked outside the B&B. She is annoyed she has the bottle to stay around after yesterday's episodes. Being Steph’s dad, Alan is making an effort to smooth over the previous day's events. Marlon tiptoes around the subject as he asks Tricia if there is any chance of reconciliation with her mother. Tricia stands firm - it is out of the question. Later in The Woolpack, Steph calls in once again to see Tricia, greeting her warmly despite the frostiness she receives in return as she asks Diane to bar her.
