Alfie and Kat make plans for their future. Dean confronts Shabnam over her secret.

Alfie and Kat continue to make plans for their future. Dean confronts Shabnam over her secret, but will she come clean?

Kat and Alfie are due a medical check to get their life insurance and Kat’s worried. Alfie enthuses as soon as it’s over they’ll get everything they’ve ever dreamed of. Kat thinks that after their offer was accepted on the bar in Spain it feels like everything’s happening too quickly. Later, in the café, Kat admits she’s worried she’ll fail the medical and stop them going to Spain.


Stacey insists she’s worrying for nothing. Later, having spoken to Stacey, Alfie does his best to reassure Kat. At the clinic, Kat’s appointment goes smoothly, to her surprise. During his own medical check, Alfie pesters the doctor about Kat’s results. Later in the Vic, Alfie reports to Stacey that all is well. Confidence growing, Kat enthuses to Nancy and Mick they’re moving to Spain. Later, Alfie discovers Kat crying in the Vic toilets but she laughs that they’re happy tears - she can’t believe her luck to be starting a new life with her boys. Welling up, Alfie hugs her tight. Later, Alfie gets a voicemail from Dr Dhiri urging him to call immediately - something’s come up on one of his tests…


Shabnam spots Dean waiting outside the Minute Mart. Masood’s also hovering and worried that she’s avoiding him. Shabnam ushers Masood inside with her to evade Dean but then busies herself with customers, to Masood’s frustration. Later, Masood returns and refuses to let in any customers until Shabnam agrees to talk at home. Shabnam’s waiting for Masood when Dean barges in the back door, to her alarm. Dean questions Shabnam over what she said; he remembers their one night stand and demands to know what happened - does he have a child? Tamwar interrupts. Dean claims he helped Shabnam with the shopping and leaves, then waits outside for Tamwar to exit and hammers on the door, begging Shabnam to speak to him. Shabnam eventually opens the door and Dean pleads for the truth. Shabnam tearfully admits she had Dean’s baby - a little girl.


Elated, Dean fires questions at Shabnam; she panics and lies that the baby died. Shocked, Dean doesn’t know why she bothered saying anything and exits. Later, having filled Stacey in, Shabnam’s disgusted with her lie but resolves to make Dean keep her secret. Dean wonders if Shabnam went through everything alone and asks if the baby suffered; Shabnam claims the doctors thought it was amazing she lasted a week. Dean’s confused – Shabnam said the baby only lived 2 days? Shabnam backtracks but Dean’s suspicions are roused. Masood finds Shabnam in the café, despairing that she’s a bad person. He assumes it’s regarding Kush and Asim and comforts that Shabnam must do what’s best for her.


Stacey offers Charlie her condolences about Dot’s imprisonment. Fatboy despairs there must be something they can do but a depressed Charlie knows Dot won’t appeal. Phil pressures Fatboy to notify him of any strangers hanging around. Vincent approaches Charlie outside the Minute Mart and introduces himself, explaining he knows Dot. Fatboy reports back to Phil, who leaves Charlie a worried voicemail. Phil discovers Charlie drowning his sorrows in the Albert with Vincent. Phil drags Charlie home while Vincent smirks. 


Mick plans a party to wet baby Oliver’s head and makes it clear Buster and Shirley aren’t invited. Buster suggests they go anyway and use the opportunity to speak to Mick. Later, holding a toy elephant and a card, Shirley spots Dean on the Square; she awkwardly claims they weren’t going to the party. Dean insists he doesn’t care but Shirley thinks otherwise, tells Buster they can’t go and bins the toy. In the Vic, Mick hands out champagne and urges Pam to spread the word that Oliver’s 100% Carter. Buster retrieves the toy elephant from the bin.


Cindy’s revising for an exam and outraged when Jane asks her to babysit Beth - nothing’s going to change! She later comes downstairs to find Jane gone and a ‘good luck’ note. When Cindy returns from her exam, Jane explains she took Beth to her meeting and promises not to take advantage of Cindy again.


Phil gets a phone call from ‘K’ and meets Kathy in a cafe. He hands over an envelope of cash and wonders if Gavin suspects anything. Kathy professes her gratitude but is distressed when Phil firmly declares he can’t do any more for her.
