Summary[]
It's not a good day in Albert Square for Andy. Alfie finds his stall trashed in the market and he knows that Andy is behind it but doesn't give him the satisfaction of seeing that he's bothered. Meanwhile, Chrissie sees Sam and tells her about the plans that she and Amanda have made. She makes Sam an offer she can't refuse - the Vic - but only if she agrees to go along with the plan. She just needs to get power of attorney from Den and get Zoe on board.

Sam wants to be friends with Zoe again. After all, they've both been messed about by Den. Andy sneers at Alfie. He warns him that he'd better pay the money that he owes. In the bookies, Andy confides in Eddie that he plans to get one over on Johnny Allen. Chrissie's tired of Den's brooding and advises him to move on. Den reckons that Zoe should be more upset about losing her baby. Chrissie informs Sam about Amanda's plan and what it could mean for her. Sam's dubious. Chrissie's taken aback when Zoe accuses her of being a murderer. She points out that Zoe signed her consent to the abortion. Zoe feels that she was pressurised into it and reckons that Chrissie only pretends to care. Den criticises Sam for being late. She gives him a mouthful and Chrissie steps in to calm them down. She urges Sam to trust her, and not get her family involved. Sam leaves a message with Grant regardless. Johnny wants to work with Jake. He sees Danny as an unreliable hothead. Andy tries to join their chat but Johnny makes it plain that he's not welcome. Andy tells Danny that his brother's abandoned him. Stacey's irritated by baby Aleesha's screaming. She asks Demi to get her out of the shop. Zoe defends Demi. She's humbled when Demi claims that she's never regretted having a child. Jane and Ian have an important announcement to make. They plan to move in together. Lucy's appalled and storms off. Peter's cross with Lucy and asks her why she's got it in for Jane. Darren's bored and nicks his dad's remote control. Keith follows him into the Square. Darren entices him into having a kickabout which ends when the ball hits Pauline on the head. Jake's infuriated by Danny's petulant behaviour. He wonders if he might be better off working on his own. Danny loses his temper and knocks his brother to the ground. A man from the Pensions Department calls at the Millers'. He presents Keith with video evidence of him playing football. Keith's warned that he could lose his disability benefit. Andy resents Johnny's increasing influence. Johnny's asked him to do a dodgy deal on his own. Andy thinks that it could be a set-up. He vents his frustration on Sam. He asks where her legendary family is now. Andy explains that Den and Chrissie conned Sam out of the Vic and she has so little pride that she now works for them. Johnny advises him to button it and show some respect. Charlie tries to console Zoe with chicken soup and a romantic video. He reckons that she'll soon be back to normal. Zoe feels that she's let her whole family down. She won't ever forgive herself. Andy's drunk and causes a scene. Pat urges him to behave himself and he insults her. Den declares that he's banned. Jake opens the door for Andy and smirks at him as he leaves. Chrissie promises that Sam will get the Vic back if she comes in on her plan. She reckons that they'll need Zoe on their side before she shoots her mouth off. Sam nods, but she's still wary of Chrissie. |
