Ian desperately tries to make amends for his actions, unaware that his world is about to change forever. Denise confides in Shabnam about her plans for the future.

Ian鈥檚 convinced Lucy鈥檚 giving him the silent treatment and leaves her another voicemail. Ian tries to make amends with Peter, pleading he was desperate to make Lucy feel loved, but Peter won鈥檛 listen. Jane鈥檚 keen to test the restaurant burger menu for their first booking. Ian鈥檚 worried that Lucy didn鈥檛 come home again and tells Jane of their argument.

Jane berates Ian for saying Lucy was his favourite, and suggests attempting to reconcile with a family meal. Shabnam鈥檚 unenthusiastic but Masood insists she attend. Ian calls at Aleks鈥� flat to recruit Jake鈥檚 help; Jake frantically covers his hangover from Ian. Jane tackles Peter, pleading that he means the world to all of them.

On Walford common, a little girl comes across Lucy鈥檚 body in the woods. Peter arrives at the restaurant and offers to call Lucy for Ian. Ian apologises profusely for his insensitive comment, swears he鈥檚 proud of both twins and wants to move on as a family. Meanwhile, in a white police tent, Lucy鈥檚 body is photographed by SOCOs in paper suits. Peter leaves Lucy a voicemail, buys her a drink and waits for her in the Vic. Denise asks Shabnam to cover her Minute Mart shifts - she鈥檚 leaving Ian. Shabnam insinuates there are other people around to look after Ian. While he waits in the Vic, Peter makes peace with Lee about Lucy.

At the restaurant, Ian鈥檚 reluctant to serve up without the twins but Jane insists. On Walford common, Lucy鈥檚 body is loaded into a police car in a body bag. At the restaurant, Ian鈥檚 hurt that neither the twins nor Denise have shown up. Ian finds Peter in the Vic and berates him in front of the whole pub, despite Peter鈥檚 protests that he鈥檚 waiting for Lucy. When Ian vents his anger at Lee, Mick orders him to leave. Peter refuses to go with Ian 鈥� no wonder Lucy didn鈥檛 show up! At the Beales鈥�, Denise is on the phone to Libby planning to catch a train to Oxford when Ian arrives, upset. Ian admits Lucy鈥檚 having problems but refuses to discuss it.

Denise convinces Ian to return to the restaurant; Ian leaves a note for Lucy and sends Denise on ahead while he checks Max鈥檚 house. A car pulls up outside the Beales鈥�. When there鈥檚 no answer at Max鈥檚, Ian leaves Lucy another voicemail. Ian crosses the Square to see two plainclothes police officers ringing his doorbell 鈥� DS Bryant and DC Summerhayes. Inside, DS Bryant informs Ian the body of a young woman was discovered earlier today - they believe it鈥檚 Lucy.

Lee tells Mick that Lucy didn鈥檛 attend Roxy鈥檚 party. Shirley suggests serving food to cash in on people鈥檚 hangovers. Mick proudly shows off the trophy he鈥檚 bought for the pool tournament. Stan鈥檚 not happy when Tina and Shirley recruit Aunt Babe鈥檚 help with the catering. Billy and Phil lose the first pool semi-final to Alfie and Terry. Dexter鈥檚 embarrassed that Lee鈥檚 thrashing him and Nancy in the second semi; when Lee deliberately misses his shot, Nancy throws the game - she鈥檚 not a charity case.

Shirley informs Babe that Stan was arrested for handling mobile phones; Babe demands to know if Dean鈥檚 involved and threatens that she鈥檚 watching Stan. Stan thinks Babe鈥檚 worse than Sylvie. Mick and Lee face Alfie and Terry in the pool final; Linda reminds Mick to remember the golden rule. Mick pots the white ball and declares Alfie and Terry the champions. Terry and Alfie celebrate with a large round of drinks. Mick confides in Lee the Landlord鈥檚 golden rule 鈥� never beat the punters.

Bianca drags Whitney to the Vic to face Lee. Lee cajoles Whitney to spend his last Saturday night of leave with him; she reveals she knows he slept with Lucy. Lee knows he鈥檚 beaten, but grins that Whitney鈥檚 an unbelievable kisser. When Nikki arrives, Bianca wants to leave but Whitney throws her advice back at her 鈥� front it out. Bianca bristles as Nikki smirks she brought Terry luck for the pool tournament.

In the Minute Mart, Jay鈥檚 perplexed to find Abi buying antacid when she wasn鈥檛 at Roxy鈥檚 party. Abi brings the tablets home to a hungover Max. Lauren leaves Lucy a voicemail wondering why she didn鈥檛 attend Roxy鈥檚 party. Max snaps when Lauren questions if Lucy鈥檚 been in touch. When Ian calls round, Max skulks in the kitchen and doesn鈥檛 answer the door.
