Meanwhile, Lauren forbids Cora from telling Max Stacey鈥檚 back. Carol arrives at No. 23 on Bianca鈥檚 behalf to enquire why Kat鈥檚 not at work. Kat feigns morning sickness and agrees to be Alice鈥檚 character witness. Stacey emotionally hugs Lily goodbye, promising she鈥檒l be back soon. Alfie pleads that Stacey鈥檚 risking life imprisonment. Stacey insists she鈥檚 doing it for Lily 鈥� they belong in Walford. At prison security, Stacey鈥檚 jittery as an officer closely examines her fake passport; the officer smiles 鈥� 鈥楯enny鈥� shares a birthday with her daughter 鈥� and waves Stacey through. On seeing Janine, Stacey holds her ground and asks her to retract her statement. Kat suggests that by righting a wrong, Janine might help her own case. Janine scoffs - she鈥檇 be admitting to lying! Janine teases that she often thinks about Archie 鈥� does Stacey? Kat maintains that Bradley killed Archie. Stacey realises that Kat knows the truth. Janine thinks that she and Stacey are no different. Frustrated, Stacey thinks Alfie鈥檚 right - Janine cares for no one but herself. As they rise to leave, Janine stops them. At home, Alfie discovers Stacey鈥檚 medication while looking for Lily鈥檚 medicine. He鈥檚 worried that the blister pack of pills is un-touched, and makes a phone call. Luke arrives looking for Stacey. In prison, Janine agrees to retract her statement if Kat tells the police she saw Alice kill Michael.
Tina invites Mick, Linda and Shirley for a takeaway to build bridges, hinting she鈥檚 bringing someone special.

Excited, Shirley cleans the flat, to Linda鈥檚 surprise, and buys a chocolate cake 鈥� Dean鈥檚 favourite. Mick advises Shirley not to get carried away, but Shirley鈥檚 optimistic. She鈥檚 stunned when Tina arrives with her ex-girlfriend, Tosh - they鈥檙e back together. Tina explains Tosh is a firefighter. Shirley snaps Tina鈥檚 crazy for getting back with Tosh and Tina thinks Shirley鈥檚 jealous. Shirley storms out, hurt. Mick follows, leaving an awkward Linda with Tosh and Tina. Shirley feels an idiot for thinking Dean was coming and cries she was a useless mum. Mick wipes her tears, insisting she鈥檚 the only mum he and Tina ever had 鈥� she got them out of care 鈥� and convinces her to re-join dinner. Linda warms to Tosh when she reveals she met Princess Diana as a child. Shirley wonders if Tosh has started slapping Tina around yet - if Tina goes back to Tosh she鈥檒l end up dead.

They share a laugh about Ian and Cora moans about Max. Patrick suggests they help each other out. Cora leans in for a kiss but Patrick pulls away 鈥� he only meant she could rent a room. Mortified, Cora flees.

Tamwar鈥檚 uncomfortable visiting Alice in prison so Carol presses him to write a letter instead.
