23/07/2012 - Part 2
The Vic football club pulls together to help Billy make it to the torch relay in time, though the stationary train is not the only obstacle threatening to derail his dream.
Alfie negotiates with the train driver while Billy panics. In McKlunky鈥檚, Lola doesn鈥檛 want an ambulance. Cora pursues Jay when he takes blankets for Lola from the charity shop. She initially thinks Lola鈥檚 faking. Nico鈥檚 unsympathetic. Cora assumes Jay鈥檚 the father. Lola insists they鈥檙e not together. Although the train starts, Billy鈥檚 waylaid again by police at the tube station. He escapes when Anthony creates a distraction, but can鈥檛 find his keys. Frantic, Billy rings Lola but gets no answer. Cora coaches Lola through labour. Billy despairs that Lola, Janet and William aren鈥檛 there. Ben flees McKlunky鈥檚, queasy. Lola cries, worried that she can鈥檛 look after her baby. Cora insists Lola fights for her. Billy smashes his flat window, changes into his Olympic tracksuit, then discovers he鈥檚 been sent fluffy slippers instead of new trainers. Billy sets off with the torch, cheered by the Square鈥檚 residents. He completes his run, overwhelmed to see Jean with Janet and William at the finish, and awkwardly kisses her. Billy races to McKlunky鈥檚 when Fat Boy shouts Lola鈥檚 in labour. Lola gives birth with Billy by her side.
A man鈥檚 looking for Ian. Lucy鈥檚 worried he鈥檚 a social worker and suspects Tanya鈥檚 responsible. Tanya鈥檚 helping Lucy clear up when the man calls again. He鈥檚 a debt collector, and gives them 48 hours to pay Ian鈥檚 debt.
At the George St flat, Kat impatiently texts her lover. The football team teases Alfie about Roxy. Back at the Vic, Alfie produces Kat鈥檚 lover鈥檚 key, found on the bench. It鈥檚 left un-claimed. Alfie insists the team stay to support Billy. Jilted, Kat scrawls 鈥渂ig mistake鈥 on the mirror. She鈥檚 unimpressed to find her potential lovers all still on the Square.
Kim reveals she did shot put when she was sixteen. Tiffany and Morgan arrive to support Billy.
