Finn is still crazy about Kasim and his growing obsession leads to him staking-out his ex’s house, breaking in and trashing his bedroom.
Feeling guilty, he confesses to Tracy, who helps him make amends back at Kasim’s, but when Emma learns something’s going on, she is desperate to help her son.
“Emma is shocked to realise there are parallels forming between herself and Finn,” says Gillian Kearney, who plays the mum of the three Barton boys.
“Finn is similar to her in that he’s in love with someone who can’t reciprocate.
She knows Kasim doesn’t love Finn, so when she finds out Finn’s giving it another go she’s devastated because she realises he’s on a very dangerous path.”
But Kasim doesn’t want to rekindle things with Finn, and when a Barton taxi is found burnt out and abandoned, Finn reveals one of Kasim’s hoodies was found nearby.
Unconvinced, Ross thinks he’s got the measure of his little brother and suspects he’s trying to frame his ex.
Finn’s distraught when the police accuse him of starting the fire, leaving Emma shocked at such a serious accusation.
“Emma is determined to protect her sons as they’re all she has left,” explains Gillian. “She wants to stop Finn going down the same path she did and would go to great lengths to protect Finn from himself…”
Rhona and Paddy kiss
Rhona might be upset when her decree absolute arrives, but not so upset that she can’t go for a divorce party with Paddy, the man she’s no longer married to.
The pair get tipsy and end up sharing a kiss on the doorstep like naughty teenagers, and later decide not to tell Pierce about it.
It’s probably just as well the pair keep quiet as it’s the anniversary of Tess’ death and Pierce is nowhere to be seen.
When he returns, he accuses Rhona of not understanding how he feels, so Rhona asks Pierce to propose again.
He does just that and Rhona says yes, but not everyone is happy.
Worried about the sudden engagement, Vanessa quizzes Rhona over her plans, unaware that Pierce is listening in…
Faith riles Zak and Lisa
No sooner has the mystery woman in the Dales been identified as Cain’s mum Faith than she’s causing trouble on a grand scale. No wonder he wasn’t best pleased with her unexpected arrival.
Faith sees Valentine’s Day as an ideal opportunity to flirt with Zak, and Lisa later confides in Belle that she suspects the pair are having an affair. Faith, meanwhile, is thrilled to have roused Lisa’s paranoia.
Despite not being invited, Faith turns up at Lisa’s birthday party at The Woolpack and proceeds to stir things up between Zak and his ex-wife.
It all leads to a humiliating climax that’s overheard by the whole pub… including Kyle’s welfare officer Linda.
Have the couple’s chances of winning custody of Kyle gone up in smoke thanks to Zak’s outburst?
