Billy is on top of the world as he introduces Lola to the rest of the Mitchell clan, while Julie is far from happy with her presence in the Square.

Abi isn’t happy when she sees Lola kiss Jay. Lola warns Julie not to make Billy chose between them. Later, when Lola and Billy return from the café, the police are waiting to take Lola back to the children’s home. Lola quickly realises Julie called them. Lola tells Billy she’ll come straight back. Julie tells Billy it’s for the best, but he can’t bear to look at her.
