Charlie struggles with his diet, but Mo encourages him as she stands to win money the more weight he loses. Charlie's placed an ad in the lonely hearts column of the Walford Gazette. Jean and Mo help him pick out a date. Dawn's amazed that Jase has accepted work abroad just as Jay is set to give evidence in court. Jase can't turn the job down, and asks Dawn to look after Jay. Back home, Dawn sets up a rota to sort out the filthy Miller house. Tanya collects Lauren from school, where she's been behaving strangely. As Tanya chats away, Lauren explodes and throws a drink over her. Tanya realises how miserable the divorce is making her. Jay's on his way to the chip shop when he's dragged into a corner by Tegs' mum. She warns him not to speak out against her son in court - or else. Charlie's date turns out to be Peggy! They enjoy an evening out but when they part he accidentally grabs her breast. Peggy laughs it off, while Charlie apologises. At the Slaters', Steven's wallet is taken by Paula.
