Billy defiantly sets Janet鈥檚 passport alight, declaring they can鈥檛 go to Canada now. Honey snaps that Billy鈥檚 not exactly father of the year; Billy retaliates by pointing out Honey wanted to give Janet away. Honey declares she wishes she鈥檇 never met Billy, before dissolving into tears. Feeling awful, Billy comforts Honey, promising to be a better father if they stay, but Honey鈥檚 resolute. Billy recalls Honey always said she鈥檇 never stop him seeing his kids. Honey insists moving to Canada is a proper chance for her and the kids - she鈥檚 had to cope alone as a single mother for years. Billy suggests they could have a different chance as a proper family again.

Honey admits she did love Billy, but regrets she can鈥檛 trust him. Honey heads off to sort out an emergency passport for Janet, leaving Billy crying on Lola鈥檚 shoulder. Billy despairs that he鈥檚 pushed Honey away and he鈥檚 a useless dad. Lola urges Billy not to give up. Meanwhile, Linda encounters a tearful Honey at the tube station and offers her a sympathetic ear. Lola rants to Jay about Honey, and Jay suggests having a special night for Billy. In the caf茅, Honey vents to Linda; she never gets a break from coping with the kids, which Billy can鈥檛 understand. Honey admits part of her will always love Billy but is desperate for a fresh start. Lola enters and rages at Honey for being so selfish, Jay pulls her away.

Upset, Honey admits Billy does try but refuses to miss out on an opportunity just to spare Billy鈥檚 feelings. Back at the flat, Billy gives Janet Honey鈥檚 wedding ring. William wishes they could stay with Billy. In the caf茅, Honey thanks Linda for listening, and knows she has a decision to make. Meanwhile, Lola and Jay arrive home with chips to find Billy鈥檚 flat empty and a note 鈥楽orry鈥�. At the Arches, Billy straps Janet and William into Phil鈥檚 car. Informing the excited kids they鈥檙e going on holiday, Billy starts the engine and drives away from the Square.

Drunken Tina catches up with Tosh on Bridge Street; she tries to explain but throws up on Tosh鈥檚 ball dress. Tosh storms to the Vic. Alfie鈥檚 irked when a fuming Tosh impinges on his boys鈥� night with Terry, moaning that Tina鈥檚 made her miss her work ball. Over darts, Tosh confides that she wants to settle down and have kids, but feels Tina will panic if she brings it up. Alfie can鈥檛 help feel for Tosh and suggests she could always have a kid on her own. Tosh realises she doesn鈥檛 want a family without Tina, and, on Alfie鈥檚 advice, heads off to find her.

Back at their flat, Dean slates Tosh to Tina, insisting she sucks all the fun out of things. Tina defends Tosh, insisting she likes feeling needed. When Tosh arrives home, Tina makes a heartfelt apology. When Tosh asks Dean to give then some time alone, he remarks that Tina鈥檚 right 鈥� Tosh is needy. Fuming, Tosh storms out.

Peter tries to make an appointment to visit Jake but is frustrated that as Lucy鈥檚 brother he鈥檚 not permitted to see him. Ian realises Peter鈥檚 spoken to Phil and tries to reassure Peter that Jake is guilty.
