An excited Seb tells Eileen that Alina is coming round to see him. When Eileen asks if Alina has heard anything about Jan, Moira and Liz realise that she is still missing him and take her to the pub. Paul warns Eileen that trafficking gangs are dangerous and she should watch her back.
Back at home, Eileen hears an intruder letting themselves in. Eileen is terrified. Grabbing some tins of peas, she hurls them at the person's head, but it turns out to be Jan.
Later, Jan tells Eileen that he loves her and wants her to move away with him to Amsterdam.
Paula confirms Jan's story that he was a police informant and he must love her very much to risk coming back to Weatherfield to see her. Eileen is given food for thought.

Meanwhile, Michelle sees a text on Robert's phone saying the ring is ready for collection. Believing it to be hers, she asks him to make sure he picks it up. Robert, who already has her ring, hides it in his car and collects the replica for Vicky.
As Robert places the cheap ring on Vicky's finger, Jed arrives and is furious. Finding his van window smashed, Robert is stunned to see Jed holding Michelle's ring and wondering why Robert needs two.
