==Plot==
Part One:
Ross visits James and Finn's graves. Afterwards, he bumps into Matty and the cousins have a brief catchup. Matty asks about Rebecca and Seb but Ross avoids answering. Mack worries about Ross stirring things up between him and Charity but Charity urges him not to let Ross get to him. After getting Jimmy out of the way, Nicola ushers Carl out the house telling him there's somewhere they need to be. Ross calls by Jacobs Fold to see Moses but ends up being lectured by Charity for taking their son to watch him fight. Matty drops by the farm to tell Cain and Moira about Ross' return. Afterwards, Moira informs Cain that she and Matty are going to visit Adam today. Cain worries Moira will have a seizure whilst she's away but Moira needs to see Adam before the surgery and assures Cain that Matty will look after her. Ross examines the framed photographs on the sideboard at Jacobs Fold and suggests he and Charity take a selfie together. Charity agrees on the condition that she takes the photo so Ross hands her his phone. Instead, Charity phones Rebecca to find out what's going but there's no answer. Ross reveals Rebecca is dead. At the police station, DS Foy interviews Carl about Tom's tablet. Ross explains he and Rebecca split amicably a while ago and he was still seeing Seb. One day, Rebecca asked him to look after Seb as she was going into hospital for a routine operation but during the surgery her heart stopped. Charity inquires where Seb is now. Ross states they took him from him and there was nothing he could do as Seb isn't his.
Part Two:
Ross explains Seb is with an aunt of Rebecca's in Bristol - she hates him but has a soft spot for Seb. Charity inquires if Ross is planning to stick around in the village. Ross is as he has no other ties. After the interview, Nicola asks DS Foy what happens now as she wants Tom out of their lives. DS Foy has to review things first but tells Nicola he'll be in touch. Dawn finds Aaron in the pub and confronts him about Billy's injuries; Aaron sticks to the story he and Billy agreed. Ross watches the interaction from the other side of the pub. Cain and Moira say an emotional goodbye. Nicola and Carl return to Victoria Cottage to find Tom has returned home. Moments later, DS Foy appears and asks Tom to come down to the station for further questioning as some new information has come to light. Jimmy realises Nicola provided the police with the new information but Nicola is adamant it was the right thing to do as the police needed to know what Carl saw. Jimmy insists it's only the right thing if she thinks Tom is guilty of all the things Belle has accused him of. Nicola does. Jimmy can't believe it but Nicola remains adamant that she did the right thing. Ross accosts Billy as he's returning to Holdgate Farm with pizza and tells Billy he owes him as his lucky win lost a lot of people a lot of money. Billy insists yesterday's fight was his last one but Ross has already told the organisers that Billy is on board for a rematch. He tells Billy to enjoy the pizza and saunters off.
