Her family can only wait as the court prepares to reveal the outcome. Will Sarah be able to return home, or is another devastating blow on the way?
Sam begs Nick not to sell the Bistro
Nick is considering selling the Viaduct Bistro back to Leanne Battersby as he struggles with everything happening in his personal life.

Could Leanne really end up getting the business back?
