==Plot==
Part One:
In a flashback to 1991, Cain questions a young Chas about her absence from her scheduled history exam. In the present day, Chas is visited by Caleb Miligan, whom she had met the previous night. Caleb reveals that he is Faith Dingle's son and Cain's half-brother, and presents evidence to support his claim. At the same time, Moira visits Cain in prison and is surprised to learn about the existence of another brother. In the 1991 flashback, Cain confronts Caleb at the garage where he works, and Caleb presents a photograph of Faith to prove their relationship. In the present day, Chas shows Caleb pictures of her children Eve and Aaron, but mentions that Aaron is no longer around. 
Part Two: 
In 1991, Cain returns home to find Chas holding a positive pregnancy test, causing him to become angry and overwhelmed by the prospect of caring for both Chas and a baby. The next day, Caleb, who has recently rejected an adoption offer because he wants to meet his birth family, arrives at the garage with the intention of meeting Chas. Cain becomes angry and tells Caleb that he will never meet his real family. In a fit of frustration, Caleb steals a car and Cain gets in as well. They are chased by the police, and Caleb, who has a criminal record, pleads with Cain not to get arrested. Cain tells Caleb to run away and escape, and Caleb does so, leaving Cain behind in the stolen car. Unbeknownst to Cain, the car had been used in a bank robbery by his boss, for which Cain has no alibis. Cain is arrested and, on the court date, Chas hugs him. In the present day, Chas calls Cain and confronts him about hiding her brother from her for the past 30 years.
