==Plot==
Part One: Vanessa encourages Rhona to disregard Marlon's request of no visitors and go to see him regardless. Lydia has come up with a rota of jobs for family and friends to take care of while Marlon recovers. Mackenzie calls Moira with some news. Al takes pleasure in winding Jai up as he clears up at the Hide. Laurel steps in and stands up for Jai. Victoria starts her first day back working at the Woolpack. Jai and Laurel admit they still care for each other. Rhona confides in Paddy that Marlon has requested no visitors. When he seconds the advice that Vanessa gave, she asks him to accompany her to the hospital. Marlon is missing not having anyone by his side. Rishi finds Jai eating his lunch at Take A Vow to avoid Kim. Rhona and Paddy arrive at the hospital to see Marlon but he is asleep. They discover from the nurse that Marlon has had his first session of physiotherapy and it has gone well.
Part Two: Laurel bumps into Al in the street and scolds him for how he spoke to Jai. Al taunts her about the pair's breakup and ponders whether Jai is back on cocaine. Overhearing the exchange, Bob gets rid of Al and takes Laurel in for a chat. Paddy peers in at a sleeping Marlon and can't bring himself to face him. He lies to Rhona that he has to go because of work. Marlon wakes up and Rhona is relieved when he is pleased to see her. Laurel fills Bob in on the reason she and Jai broke up. Bob mentions that he did something similar a few years back and took out a loan in Brenda's name - she eventually forgave him. Bear makes Paddy feel guilty when he mentions that he wished he'd done more for his friend who had a stoke years before. Still obviously missing Mackenzie, Charity decides to try and move on by flirting with the Drayman. Moira overhears and is disgusted. When Charity asks Moira if she has heard from Mackenzie, Moira lies and tells her no. Rhona finds out from Vanessa that Paddy hasn't been working and confronts him over his lies. Paddy admits that he's struggling to know how to deal with Marlon's situation. Rhona is appalled and reminds Paddy that if it were him in a hospital bed then Marlon would never leave his side.
