As news of Jake's arrest sends shockwaves through Albert Square, Peter continues to push Lola away whilst caring for his family and tells her that he's preparing to leave for home, though he continues to get closer to Lauren who's worried about her actions.
Phil hopes he can help when he makes a visit to Ian, underestimating the grief he's still going through and leading him to make a huge decision himself.
Meanwhile, Stan and Shirley get into a heated argument where he tells his daughter he's always loved her, and calls in a favour when a family emergency interrupts their row.
The day takes a majorly unexpected turn when a familiar face turns up at the Queen Vic, but how will he be greeted by the Carter clan?
