Michael follows, demanding he have Scarlett stay overnight. Amidst their arguing, Scarlett鈥檚 left alone and her buggy topples over. Scarlett鈥檚 fine but Janine welcomes Michael鈥檚 support. They enjoy a glass of wine, Janine suggests she take 6 months off work to look after Scarlett. Michael smirks that Janine still wants him and will wait in the Vic for her call. Janine seethes, but later makes a phone call, telling someone to come round. Later, shocked Michael glances across the Square to see Janine letting Danny in, kissing him passionately.
