Also, the day of Justin's trial for the acid attack arrives, and there's a spy in the Rovers. Justin’s sister Karen calls at the pub, telling Daisy how sorry she is for Justin’s attack and how she hopes he’ll be sent down.

Daisy is touched by her support, but Carla and Ryan are appalled to see Justin’s sister in the Rovers and a row ensues. Throwing insults, Ryan reminds Daisy how she went out of her way to split him up from Alya.

As Ryan leaves for court, Karen admits that she passed on what she gleaned about Daisy’s history of manipulation, to Justin’s lawyer. Ryan lets himself back into Street Cars flat, too distressed to face the court.

Daisy is stressed at the thought of facing Justin in court without Ryan to back her up. Daniel begs Ryan to reconsider, pointing out that if Justin walks free, Daisy will be in constant fear, but Ryan refuses. As the usher summons Daisy into court she crumbles and tells Daniel she can’t face it.

Daniel takes the witness box and tells the court how Justin relentlessly stalked Daisy in the run up to his acid attack. Daisy is about to do a runner when Carla spots her, urging her to stand up and prove to Justin that he can’t control her. As the defence barrister gives Daniel a grilling, painting Daisy as highly strung and unreliable, she enters the witness box.

Ryan enters the witness box and describes to the court how Justin threw the acid intending it for Daisy, but he took the full force causing indescribable pain. The defence barrister cross examines Ryan, suggesting it’s he who’s in love with Daisy and they plotted the acid attack themselves, Ryan and Daisy are horrified.
