Summary[]
Ronnie is left shaken to the core. Abi's world falls apart and tries to look for a way out. Meanwhile, Stacey receives some positive news.
|
Louise riles Abi when she reads her Babe's letter, which details how Abi lied about being pregnant. A desperate Abi hands over Phil's credit card and assures Louise that if Phil notices, she'll find a way to square it with Ben. Phil arrives back from the hospital and as adamant as Louise is that she can look after him alone, Ben steps up to the mark. Louise asks Ben to stop treating her like a child, but it falls on deaf ears. Ben firmly tells Louise that if she wants to help Phil, she should go back to her mum's and stop causing everyone stress. Later, Louise tells Abi that she's decided what she wants – Abi and Ben to leave Walford for good. Carmel's on Kush's stall and assures Tamwar that Kush is on his way. When Tamwar leaves, Carmel firmly tells Kush to sort himself out, before he loses everything. Kush corners Tamwar and declares that he has one up on him, but Tamwar states that didn't call Carmel to get back at him; he did it to help him sort himself out. Kush sincerely thanks Carmel for giving him the push he needs to help himself. Kush overhears Carmel stating to Umar that she'll tell Kush in her own time – Kush demands to know what she was discussing. Kush sits Carmel down in the café and she opens up with the truth – the house has sold and Umar's given her a week to move out. Kush is unimpressed when he twigs that it's all too handy for Carmel to have turned up in Walford having been turfed out of her home. Carmel agrees that she's been selfish and states that she'll be gone by the afternoon. Later, Carmel's given food for thought when Tamwar states that if it was his mum in this situation, she wouldn't be going anywhere. Kush is surprised to arrive home to find Carmel still in the flat; Carmel reminds Kush that he can't get rid of her so easily. Stacey cheerily wishes another mother well as she sees her leaving the MBU. Stacey meets with her care team and presents her case for why she needs to be back home. Stacey's thrilled when she's told she can go home today. Martin's on top of the world as he heads off to the MBU to pick up Stacey. Stacey's distressed when she sees the mother that she waved off earlier return to the unit. Nurse Anya finds a worried Stacey and assures her that setbacks are common, but that she's ready to go home – they wouldn't suggest it otherwise. Martin arrives to collect Stacey; it's a warm moment. |
