Because of their instant bod, Mick is reluctant to find out the baby's paternity but realises that it needs to be known.
We will see Mick bond with the baby earlier in the week and he tells Linda that there is no need to know the paternity because the DNA test is not important to him.
With Dean banging on to Shirley that he believes the baby is his, Shirley tells Mick they must do a DNA test. Shirley seems to be getting through to him when Mick gets a call from Linda to say that Dean has arrived at the hospital.
After talking to the nurse at the hospital, Mick realises there's a way to discover the baby's paternity, and despite Linda's reluctance, decides to find out his blood group. What will the results say?

Lee will also find himself struggling in the wake of Linda's birth next week as he finds it hard to come to terms with having a new sibling and not knowing who the father is.
After receiving a video from Linda, Lee tells Nancy and Whitney that he is not going to the hospital to visit them.
When Mick overhears the conversation, he pulls Lee aside and the pair open up about their feelings.
As Lee reveals his fears about the baby being Dean's, Mick assures him that the baby is a Carter regardless, but does Mick believe his own words?
