The Vic football club pulls together to help Billy make it to the torch relay in time.

The Vic football club pulls together to help Billy make it to the torch relay in time, though the stationary train is not the only obstacle threatening to derail his dream.

Alfie negotiates with the train driver while Billy panics. In McKlunky’s, Lola doesn’t want an ambulance. Cora pursues Jay when he takes blankets for Lola from the charity shop. She initially thinks Lola’s faking. Nico’s unsympathetic. Cora assumes Jay’s the father. Lola insists they’re not together. Although the train starts, Billy’s waylaid again by police at the tube station. He escapes when Anthony creates a distraction, but can’t find his keys. Frantic, Billy rings Lola but gets no answer. Cora coaches Lola through labour. Billy despairs that Lola, Janet and William aren’t there. Ben flees McKlunky’s, queasy. Lola cries, worried that she can’t look after her baby. Cora insists Lola fights for her. Billy smashes his flat window, changes into his Olympic tracksuit, then discovers he’s been sent fluffy slippers instead of new trainers. Billy sets off with the torch, cheered by the Square’s residents.  He completes his run, overwhelmed to see Jean with Janet and William at the finish, and awkwardly kisses her. Billy races to McKlunky’s when Fat Boy shouts Lola’s in labour. Lola gives birth with Billy by her side. 

A man’s looking for Ian. Lucy’s worried he’s a social worker and suspects Tanya’s responsible. Tanya’s helping Lucy clear up when the man calls again. He’s a debt collector, and gives them 48 hours to pay Ian’s debt.

At the George St flat, Kat impatiently texts her lover. The football team teases Alfie about Roxy. Back at the Vic, Alfie produces Kat’s lover’s key, found on the bench. It’s left un-claimed. Alfie insists the team stay to support Billy. Jilted, Kat scrawls “big mistake” on the mirror. She’s unimpressed to find her potential lovers all still on the Square.

Kim reveals she did shot put when she was sixteen. Tiffany and Morgan arrive to support Billy.
