Kat's doubts about Alfie lead her to Michael - but will she take him up on his offer?

Kat's doubts about Alfie lead her to Michael - but will she take him up on his offer? A letter from Billy's past has terrible consequences for Jay, while Bianca worries for Carol.

Digesting Kat and Michael’s betrayal, Alfie tells Phil he wants out of the Vic, but on hearing he’ll lose his deposit, he’s left rethinking.  Realising how much he loves Kat, Alfie is stirred into action.  

Meanwhile at the hospital, Michael returns; insisting on seeing the baby on the ultrasounds before he leaves.  Learning that the baby’s a boy, Michael’s delighted and asks Kat to go with him to Spain.  Unrelenting, Kat maintains that the baby is Alfie’s.  Michael insists that Alfie will never accept the child as his own and gives her until tomorrow to make a decision.  Concealing his hurt; Alfie returns to Kat.  Wracked with guilt, she prepares to come clean but stops on realising that Alfie doesn’t love the child as his own.  With Alfie unable to guarantee how he’ll feel towards the baby, Kat’s left crushed.  Meeting Michael, she agrees to leave with him.  Alfie watches on; devastated.

Having taken a call for Billy, Jay quizzes him as to whether it’s connected to the letter.  A defensive Billy claims it’s regarding money.  Jay conveys his concerns to Phil, who reveals the truth about the kids’ home abuse investigation.  Billy attempts to apologise to Jean for humiliating her, but when Stacey intervenes, he snaps.  Billy berates Jay for stealing Greg’s tools, but Jay retaliates by confronting Billy about his past.  With Billy unwilling to talk, Jay accuses him of being a coward.  Snapping, Billy punches Jay.  

Carol busily prepares for Billie’s arrival.  She’s crest-fallen on learning that he’s instead celebrating his birthday with friends in Southend.  

Grace chases Dot about the launderette job.  An unenthusiastic Dot tells Grace that, having been a teacher, she’s over-qualified for the job.  On realising Grace’s loneliness, a guilty Dot asks her to cover her job whilst she’s away.

EastEnders 2008 - 2012: 2010
