Kirsty demands answers and there鈥檚 a festive surprise for Clarrie.

When Philip returns home Kirsty asks him if he鈥檚 having an affair. Philip comes clean about how he runs his business. He insists he鈥檚 not doing anything wrong. Those who work for him have a roof over their heads and they are a lot better off than being homeless. Kirsty isn鈥檛 fooled and when Philip uses the word 鈥榟orses鈥� she corrects him with 鈥榮laves鈥�. Philip tries to get Kirsty to focus on the future but she wants to know about Blake, Kenzie and Jordan. Roy calls round to check up on Kirsty but Philip tries to stop Kirsty answering the door. As she realises what Philip has done with his workforce, she shouts to Roy to call the police.

Meanwhile, Poppy鈥檚 carol singing to raise money for sepsis awareness charities. Eddie鈥檚 so full of himself after lots of praise for his Christmas Show performance last night, Clarrie warns him not to steal Poppy鈥檚 limelight. There鈥檚 no answer at Philip and Kirsty鈥檚 house so they move on. A little further on, Eddie asks Clarrie to renew their wedding vows. Clarrie says yes but the moment is cut short by a police car hurtling past.

With Roy inside the house, Philip tries to convince Kirsty to give him a chance. But Kirsty won鈥檛 hear it. The only thing he can do for her is to tell the police where to find Blake, Kenzie and Jordan. Philip walks out of the house and hands himself in to the waiting police outside.
