Billy is released. Phil, Jay and Ben worry when Shirley and Andrew agree to team up to find Heather's killer. Janine asks Michael to go to the shops for her. He's offended when she offers him money, assuming he can't pay for the shopping himself. Later, Jean tells Michael that the murder suspect had lots of money on him. Michael teases her that the murderer could be after her because of her lottery winnings, planting a seed that Jean should invest her money... Ian has decided to buy the cafe back from Phil as he feels something's been missing in his life since he handed it over.
