In a flashforward scene at Kit and Sarah’s flat, we see the remnants of a dinner party with broken glass, a chair upended and blood splattered across the table cloth.
In the present, Kit reminds Sarah about their date night and suggests they should go food shopping at lunchtime. But when Kit receives a text from Sarah cancelling their lunchtime trip, Brody teases him that Sarah’s had a better offer. Maria overhears and her mind whirrs.
As Sarah leaves the builders yard, Kit watches her with suspicion. In the Rovers, Sarah then invites Todd and Summer to join her and Kit for dinner. Kit’s heart sinks. However, when he then spots her whispering to Gary, Kit suggests Gary and Maria might like to join him, Sarah, Todd and Summer.
Gary and Sarah freeze whilst Maria accepts his invitation. What does Kit have in store?
Later, as Todd, Summer, Gary and Maria arrive for the dinner party, tensions are high as old animosities bubble under. Maria aims some bitchy comments at Sarah, while Kit does his best to get Gary on his own, making pointed remarks about people’s propensity to lie.
With the dinner party in full flow, Kit serves up the main course, but as Maria raises a toast to the hosts, she announces that Gary and Sarah have been conducting an affair for weeks.
As everyone reels in shock, will secrets and lies be exposed in a shocking series of flashbacks? And how does the evening end with blood splattered across the table?
Meanwhile, Ronnie meets up with Fiona and explains that he’s no idea where the gun is, but for the sake of Debbie’s state of mind, he’s willing to pay her off. When Fiona asserts that she doesn’t want his money but he can repay her another way, Ronnie’s shaken.
Having told Debbie that he’s dealt with Fiona and she won’t be bothering them again, Debbie heads for a lie down while Ronnie tells Carl the truth. What does she want from him?
Elsewhere, Roy visits Sam and assures him that the incident in the café is forgotten. When Roy suggests a game of chess, Nick’s delighted to see Sam seemingly on the mend. But when Sam makes an elementary mistake and Roy wins the game, Nick’s concerned by Sam’s reaction.
