When Garry Coyle attacks Laura, Marie tells Greg that she wants custody of their children and both consult solicitors. Marie seeks financial help from her mother Niamh, who agrees but points out that a court appearance will reveal the identity of Laura's father. Meanwhile, Laura discovers that Brenna sent her mother abusive texts in her name and chooses to stay with Marie. At the hearing, Niamh forces Marie to reveal the truth about herself and Billy whilst Marie's solicitor points to Brenna's bad influence on the children. Only one parent will win their case, leading to a compromise.
