Tam and Patricia Robbinson are murdered in their own pub whilst their son Simon is staying with a friend. Simon believes his half-sister Carla to have died but she is very much alive though long estranged from her mother. The investigation links her to known criminal Ben Townsley, who met her in rehab and, whilst she claims they were mere acquaintances, her drugs dealer Mark Britton gives the police evidence which incriminates them both. Meanwhile Janet's daughter Elise returns home after developing a crush on her father's new partner's son and Will splits with Rachel. Both Janet and Rachel are concerned that Gill is drinking heavily.
