Tom is released to his parents' shop where Bill, initially hard on him, unbends as his son makes himself useful. Tom is threatened by Big Mac, whom he and Jack exposed as a tobacco baron when they were in prison, resulting in the Scot being flogged. Mac says he will harm Tom's son Tommy if he does not steal from the shop for him. However, whilst the Ashtons look after Tommy, Jack sets a trap and gives Big Mac a good beating, retrieving Tom's money. Matt is critical as he and Jack are trying to get compensation for injured Harry Duffy and Matt feels that their positions as union executives would have been in jeopardy if they had been caught fighting.
