Someone knows what Stephen did

Stephen shows off his new car while sharing samples with Owen and Angelique. While doing so, he opens a hand-delivered letter. He is shocked to read a single line, ominously warning him “I know what you did to Rufus.”

Over at the Rovers, he struggles to get in the mood while the others celebrate their second order. As he heads back to the factory alone, he is approached by two youths.

He recognises them as the dealers he attempted to buy LSD from a few months ago. They tell Stephen that they sent the letter – and demand £10k for their silence, or else they’ll go to the police. Will Stephen go along with their demands?

Elsewhere, Elaine tells Tim and Sally that she and Stephen will be moving into their apartment together soon. Tim is horrified when he realises that his mum plans to marry Stephen.

He tells Stephen that he would rather die than let him marry Elaine. How will Stephen react?

The pressure piles up for Amy

Summer helps Amy with her economics course work over at the cafe. When Aaron enters, stressed-out Amy knocks over her coffee, completely soaking her laptop.

As Amy tries to get her laptop working again, she tells Tracy and Summer that she’s already had a warning from Uni because she’s so behind with her work.

Later, Tracy finds a brand new laptop waiting on the doorstep. Amy is shocked by the mystery gift – but who is her surprise benefactor?
