Tina expresses concern to Sonia about their relationship. Martin reaches breaking point.

Tina shares her concerns with Sonia about their relationship. Martin reaches breaking point, and Abi begins to have doubts.

Sonia clocks Tina’s downbeat mood and it’s not long before the reason becomes apparent – Tina remarks that Sonia’s either at work or marathon training. Sonia suggests that the pair of them do something together that afternoon; Tina agrees.  As the pair make plans, Martin arrives and asks Sonia to take Arthur so that he can go and see a mother and baby unit in Bristol – it’s Stacey’s review tomorrow. Martin begs, but Sonia stands firm; she has other priorities. In hospital, Nurse Eve finds an anxious Stacey, nervous about her upcoming review. Tina’s given food for thought when in the café; Kim suggests not being negative about Sonia’s interests but instead bringing her interests to her.  Kush is put out when Sonia cancels her run with him and is further annoyed when Sonia states that Martin has mentioned Kush’s odd mood. Sonia catches up with Kush and lends an ear, Kush admits that he needs alcohol to sleep – it helps him to forget.  Kush admits to Sonia that he struggles seeing Martin with Arthur and goes to open up, but the moment is broken when Tina arrives, wheeling in an exercise bike.  Tina sits Sonia down and admits that she feels as though they’re drifting apart. Tina shares that the bike is an old one of Linda’s – she was hoping that it would mean Sonia could stay in to train. As Sonia gives the bike a go, the pair giggle and Sonia ignores a call from Martin as she leads Tina upstairs.  A teary Bex arrives and announces to Sonia and Tina that Martin and Arthur have been in a car crash. Meanwhile, an oblivious Stacey strokes Arthur’s teddy and dares to hope about tomorrow...

Ben catches up with Abi and reminds her of her doctor’s appointment. Abi’s adamant that she can go alone, but Ben’s keen to be involved.

As the doctor takes Abi’s blood pressure, she claims to feel sick and Ben leaves the room to get her some water. Alone with the doctor, Abi states that she doesn’t want Ben in the room; Ben’s asked to wait in reception. Abi admits to the doctor the lies she’s spun - the doctor recommends that Abi is honest with Ben; she can fix things.  Ben clocks that something’s wrong with Abi but she claims that it’s good news – she has a due date of the 20th October.
