Summary[]
The Mitchells struggle to come to terms with Ben's abuse, while the guests are kept in the dark. Bert bids farewell to the Square.
|
Peggy cancels the reception and locks up. The guests congregate in the café to speculate on the events. The number one conclusion is that Phil has been beating Stella. Ian rushes to the Vic when he hears about Ben's bloody shirt. A crowd gather outside the pub demanding answers. Ben's convinced that Phil is going to choose Stella over him. Peggy tries reassuring him and decides to open up when she discovers what rumours are conjecturing. Ian is furious when he sees Lucy walking around the market in a promiscuous outfit. He demands her to wash it off and grounds her when he discovers her chatting up a chav. Bert feels undesired as Jase and Jay's relationship grows over a game of football in the park. After a sincere chat with Pat, he decides to leave the boys to their own devices and quietly leaves Walford. With the reception back on as scheduled, Peggy tries to avoid the one question that is on everybody's mind – what has happened to Stella. Phil returns to a pub full of guests and destroys the decorations. Abi is determined to find out what has happened to Ben. She sneaks out of Pat's and makes it to the Vic. Phil is furious when he finds out that Abi mentioned something to Tanya about Stella and she never said anything. Bradley tries being intimate with a cold Stacey. Max interrupts and makes a cold comment about Bradley's future which makes Stacey erupt. Phil confesses to killing Stella in front of the whole Vic and DI Kelly. |
