Summary[]

Stuart confronts his brother. The Taylor family rally round Bernadette. Stacey loses her patience with Kat.

Callum warily eyes up the Pride decorations outside the Prince Albert. Stuart watches from a distance.

Karen is oblivious to the Pride event and learns about it from Tiffany. She is determined to make it a day for Bernadette to remember and rallies the family to dress up and support her.

Stacey acknowledges Kat's desperation for Phil's money and accuses her of wanting it to give to Kush so that he can take her and Martin to court and attempt to gain custody of Arthur.

Bernadette tells Ted that she is a lesbian. Ted is accepting and immerses himself in the Pride celebrations.

Callum meets Stuart in Walford East and explains his one-night stand with Ben. He insists that he still loves Whitney and wants to marry her. Stuart claims that is all that matters.

Bernadette tells Tina that she wants to meet someone face-to-face and not online.

Stuart issues Ben a warning in the Prince Albert but is interrupted by Kathy.

Kat accuses Martin of stealing her money. Martin protests his innocence to Stacey; she believes him.

Adam and Honey have lunch at Walford East. Habiba is uncomfortable. Adam catches sight of Iqra's phone, which has a message from "Ash" on it, thanking her for a "perfect night". He proclaims that they both have a secret.

Kat rummages around Stacey's bedroom. Stacey walks in on her and, irritated at her actions, admits that she took the money.

Night falls and a drag artist sings Proud. Karen kisses a woman who is also called Caren.

Callum cannot find his phone. Ben waits in the Arches for Callum, having received a message from him. However, it is Stuart who walks in. He firmly warns Ben to keep his distance from Callum before beating him unconscious and leaving him bloodied and bruised on the floor.
