Episode 5587 (20th April 2010)

==Plot==
Wary of Carl's plans to speak with a solicitor about retaining custody of his children, Chas urges him to speak with Colleen and tell the kids what's really going on. As he puts forward an emotional-yet-biased plea, Thomas and Anya feel pressured and they awkwardly choose Carl to live with. Carl's elated, while Chas is left feeling unsettled. Adam's concerned when Aaron angrily snaps at Andy. When Paddy visits Butlers, Adam decides to tell him about seeing Aaron kissing a man. At that point, Paddy suddenly realises why Aaron's been so angry since that night. Paddy points out to Adam why Aaron wouldn't want his friends to know and warns Adam to honour his friend's wish to keep it a secret. Faye kindly offers to loan some money to Natasha but Natasha's furious when she realises it'd be the same money that she gave Faye to leave the village with. Desperate, Natasha approaches the Sharmas to ask if they'd like to invest in her plans to expand Home Farm. Val apologises to Diane for prying but Diane admits that she likes Doug and the effect he has on Victoria.
