Billy had a confession to make to Dawn - it was he who had broken the social distancing bubble, not Kim as everyone thought. As they chatted, Tracy arrived at the cafe accompanied by Ella and Mandy, who were deep in conversation. Tracy opened up to Vanessa about her problems, but her mood soured when she saw Ella. She didn't waste any time in laying down some stern words for her, still harboring anger and frustration over her return. As the women continued to talk, Charity arrived, having been told by Belle that Tom reminded her of her abuser, Bails. Wanting to help her friend, Charity convinced Cain to accompany her to a Welsh holiday cottage to search for Belle.
Upon arriving, they were shocked to find the once peaceful cottage in shambles, turned completely upside down. And to make matters worse, they discovered blood on the walls. But where were Belle and Tom? What had transpired in that cottage? A special flashback episode would take us back in time to reveal the truth. It was a nightmare for Belle, as she found herself trapped with her abusive husband, Tom, who had planned the getaway as a way to further isolate her from her family.
