Tracy Barlow hits the floor next week and there are fears she's having kidney failure when she suffers an infection. She'd been feeling unwell but everyone thinks she's "crying wolf" so she won't have to leave her digs under Emily's roof where she's taken refuge after Steve sold Number 13 to Kevin Webster.
She is rushed to hospital and Steve is by her side, which gives her the wrong impression, that Steve really does care about her. He's really just trying to keep her spirits up and really should have learned by now about doing things like this. Give Tracy an inch and all that.
She doesn't realize that he has hopes of getting back together with former flame Michelle. And Michelle doesn't realize at first that he's given Tracy false hopes. According to Soaplife, via Digital Spy, Michelle tells him to sort Tracy out but as we know, Steve has a major problem with confrontation and a very weak spine, especially when it comes to Tracy who could remove access to Amy on a whim.
Yet again, Steve is caught between Tracy and another woman and it might be a dangerous place for Michelle to be, considering how Tracy's made life miserable for both of Steve's recent ex-wives, Becky and Karen. Kate Ford says (via What's On TV) that "Tracy's obsession with Steve will last until the end of time - and she has much more trouble to cause before then."
