Chas and Paddy worried about baby scan
A nervous Chas and Paddy discuss their 20-week scan, and when Chas shows just how worried she is, Paddy decides to cancel it behind her back. When she finds out what he’s done, she isn't happy, but when Cain encourages her to be honest with Paddy about her feelings, things soften and they re-arrange their scan to go along together. As they wait, worried to find about their baby's health, they are relieved when they are told that their baby is perfectly healthy – and they even find out the gender. Deciding to keep the baby's gender a secret, they celebrate the good news with the Dingles and later go along to Grace's grave to tell her – knowing that she can keep their secret for them.

Megan goes behind Frank's back
Frank and Megan do their best to drum up business to pay for Megan's legal fees, and she agrees to help at an event at Home Farm. Megan fails at getting Kim on her side though, and breaks down in the pub. Kim witnesses the scene, and tells her that she needs to face the consequences of her actions in front of the whole pub. Feeling hated, Megan is later stunned when a guilty Graham offers to pay her legal fees. The next day, Megan and Frank agree to move in together again but Megan fails to tell him about Graham's offer. Frank, therefore, asks Rishi for a loan at Sharma's Factory, but arrives back to see Graham visiting with a blank cheque. Will Megan tell the truth? And will Frank do something he might forget?
