So David is blackmailing Nick (because he knows Nick stole Audrey's money) and Nick is blackmailing David (because he knows the truth about Callum). The obvious conclusion: they will open a trendy barber shop (name suggestion: Sweeney Odd).
It's David's idea because he got squeezed out of getting his hands on Audrey's Salon. Audrey is desperate for cash (because Nick ripped her off) and has made a quick sale to Claudia. So ol' Davey is using Nick to launch his own business (suggested slogan: "I'll cut you!")
Sally is out of jail and just in the nick of time as her psycho cellmate was about to shove a shiv at poor Sal. But, with ol' Duncan making a full confession (thanks to some good work by Gina in convincing Duncan's wife to make Duncan come clean), Sal is out and trying to adjust to life on the outside. Fortunately Abi is there to help and grateful Sally offers Abi room and board at her house.
Things are not going so well for Sinead and Daniel. Sinead delivered her baby (Bertie) early so she could get radiotherapy treatment for her cancer. But Baby Bertie is having some problems and may need surgery.
Steve and Tracy are back from vacation. Steve is randy. Tracy is not. Therein lies the nub of the problem so Tracy pretends to want a baby in order to cool Steve's ardour. Steve pretends that he wants a baby in order to fulfill his caveman desires.
Meanwhile, it looks like Amy is the one who is pregnant. Can we really endure another teen pregnancy story line after Faye and Sarah Louise? Wouldn't it be more uplifting to see Amy win a scholarship or something?
And now for some lines from the week that was:
Nick to David:
"I'm the one with a brain injury. You're the one with a screw lose"
(what's your point?)
Mary to Tracy re: her plan to cool Steve's jets by pretending to want a baby:
"That's a sledgehammer to crack some nuts"
(fortunately the nuts are on the smallish side)
Mary again:
"Steve's brain is like horse manure - very fertile"
(similar in other ways too)
Tim's homemade sign to greet Sally upon her return:
"Weelcome home"
(Thaanks a lot)
Steve to Tracy:
"You and I would make great parents"
(how do feel about grandparents?)

Well fellow Cobbleros, so ends another week. I'm glad that Sally is out of jail but not too happy about Amy's pregnancy. Oh well. Thanks as always for stopping by and have a great week.
