The police are still knocking on the door. Phil sends Jay upstairs with Amy. Insisting it’s over, Ronnie reveals to Roxy that she killed Carl. Phil instructs Roxy to go upstairs. As Ronnie opens the door, Phil slips Carl’s phone into Roxy’s coat pocket. Sharon arrives home full of trepidation having seen the police car outside. But the police aren’t there for Ronnie, they’ve brought Lola to Phil’s after arresting her for shoplifting. She’s been cautioned but they aren’t going to take it any further. Lola’s distraught and insists she won’t do it again. Roxy comes downstairs and Phil shepherds her towards the kitchen, trying to keep her calm. Back in the living room, Lola panics that the police will ring Social Services and Sharon and Ronnie reassure her. Ronnie insists Lola’s an honorary Mitchell sister. Phil gives Lola some nappies and tells her to come to him if she needs anything for Lexi and to get the police to take her home next time. Lola explains she didn’t want Peter and Billy to find out. Phil tells Jay to walk Lola home. Phil informs Sharon that Ronnie told Roxy about Carl because she thought Sharon had gone to the police. Sharon insists Phil can trust her. She’s not sure she wants Dennis living in the house but Phil assures her Ronnie’s going to keep her head down, they’re the only people who know what happened and all they’ve got to do is keep their mouths shut. Phil pulls Sharon up on the bar contract – he knows full well she didn’t make a mistake. Sharon admits she was angry with him about Dennis’ death and wanted something that couldn’t be taken away from her. Phil assures Sharon he’d kill Ronnie himself before he let her lay one finger on her or Dennis. Meanwhile, upstairs, Roxy’s hostile to Ronnie. Ronnie can’t believe Roxy thinks she killed Carl in cold blood. Roxy accuses Ronnie of thinking no man is good enough for her and of being like Archie. She then tells Ronnie they’re finished – she doesn’t have a sister.
