==Plot==
Laurel is annoyed as Rhona comes round to keep an eye on her while he goes out. Kerry insists that Dan needs to stay behind so he can support Sean financially, but his heart breaks at the thought of losing Amelia, who will leave with Ali and Ruby. Belle tells Lisa that she just wants to be treated like a normal person. Dan is devastated as he tells Amelia that he isn't going with her to Liverpool. Lisa explains to Priya that Belle won't be coming back to work now she's found out she isn't getting paid. Rhona tries to get through to Laurel but she continues to deny having a problem and becomes snappy with her. Ruby explains the move to Rachel, leaving her hurt that Ali didn't tell her. Cain is stunned to learn about Laurel and doesn't mince his words when he tells Marlon not to waste his life on her. Priya decides to take Belle on as a paid staff member, working in both the office and on the factory floor as required. Lisa's ecstatic. Carly jumps to help Bob with a broken dishwasher in the café. Rhona is shocked when she finds out Social Services are involved with Marlon and Laurel and realises that she can't be trusted around the children. Rachel vents her anger on Ali. Marlon loses patience with Laurel and rips into her. She is horrified when Marlon calls her a pathetic alcoholic and snaps in response, hitting him hard across the face. Bob warms to Carly when she fixes the dishwasher. Rhona tells Paddy about Social Services. Paddy suggests they limit Leo's access to seeing Marlon while Laurel is ill. Laurel promises Marlon that she's going to get help and books an appointment.
