Episode 4206 (16th November 2005)

==Plot==
With Steph’s words from the previous day looming heavily on Adam’s mind, he tries to get her to open up about her difficulties with Alan and suggests she contact Shelly. Steph stonewalls him. Later he tells Alan that Steph is very distressed about what happened last year and asks him if he could bring himself to offer his forgiveness. Alan is furious at Adam's interference and as he shouts he clutches his chest in pain. He is soon rushed to hospital. Lesley remains devastated over Rodney's rejection of her and new relationship with Kelly. Simon threatens Rodney, but he still insists on being civilised by having a conversation with her. Ivan tries to boost Lesley's fragile ego; Nicola is impressed by his efforts. Later, Ivan flirts with Toni and Paul. Meanwhile, Diane returns from her four-week cruise and is furious to find that her sister stayed at the pub the previous night. Val can’t resist pushing it and asks if she can stay for one more night as she’ll be in court tomorrow. Diane is adamant that she must leave and Val is forced to spend her last night of freedom on the factory floor. Steph chooses to stay alone rather than be with Alan. Adam asks her to stop blaming himself and tries to show her support, sending her into a rage. She mocks him and tells him to stay away, she feels nothing for him, and anyone who gets close to her gets hurt. After he leaves, she crumples to the floor in tears.
