As the Rovers staff prepare for the party Tracy arrives at the pub to collect Amy, determined to spend time with her daughter at Christmas. Becky's furious when Steve lets her go, fearing Tracy won't bring her back, but Steve assures her he knows what he's doing. Tracy does bring her back, but having learnt from Amy that Becky and Steve 'bought' Max, Tracy curtly informs them she's taking Amy for good. Becky flies at her and they brawl in the pub. Steve tries to calm them down but Tracy trumps him by threatening to tell the authorities he paid for Max if he tries to keep hold of Amy. How will Steve react?
