The pressure of looking after Patrick is taking its toll on Denise. Dean is left reeling when Shirley confides in him. Jane returns to Albert Square with some very worrying news.

A weary Denise gets Patrick ready for the day. Denise opens a letter and tries to hide the contents from Patrick. When he demands otherwise, she admits that it states his allotment hasn鈥檛 been tended to for a long time - they may give it away. Denise apologises for snapping at Patrick but it鈥檚 clear she鈥檚 at the end of her tether; she drains a glass of wine on her way out.

In the Minute Mart, Shabnam picks up on Denise鈥檚 bad mood and takes her out for a tea break to the caf茅. Denise admits to Shabnam just how hard caring for Patrick is 鈥� Ian overhears her despair. Ian offers to help if she needs anything. Denise is dismissive of Ian鈥檚 offerings, labelling it guilt money. Back at the Minute Mart, Shabnam questions Denise when she reports that two bottles of Shiraz are missing; Denise claims that they smashed earlier.

Shabnam takes a phone call 鈥� Head Office have rung about some discrepancies and need the books checked. Denise assures Shabnam she鈥檒l deal with it. Denise returns home to see that Shabnam has cooked for Patrick. As Shabnam goes to move her Minute Mart bags from the chair, she is shocked to see the two bottles of Shiraz that Denise reported as missing. Shabnam tells Denise that if she doesn鈥檛 tell the truth about her stealing, then she will.

An exhausted Cindy comes downstairs with a finally settled Beth who鈥檚 been up half the night. Cindy is momentarily relieved when Ian offers to watch Beth, but it鈥檚 short lived when Marie calls and Ian has to head to the caf茅. Cindy has just managed to get Beth settled again when the doorbell goes 鈥� it鈥檚 Liam, wanting help with Biology revision. When Liam and Cindy begin to discuss school, Cindy gets upset and confesses that some days she wakes up and just wants to run. Cindy goes to kiss Liam, but Liam pulls away, not wanting to take advantage when her head isn鈥檛 straight.

As Ben fixes the toaster in the caf茅, Ian apologises for not visiting him in prison more often. Ben is forgiving 鈥� he should have seen Ian sooner but didn鈥檛 know what to say about Lucy. Ian assures Ben that he鈥檇 rather an awkward silence than empty words; he鈥檚 glad he鈥檚 back. Ian returns home to a forlorn Cindy. As Ian tries to console her, the pair are shocked to see a frantic Jane arrive, asking if Bobby鈥檚 there 鈥� he told Jane he was going to stay with Ian, but he鈥檚 not turned up, so where is Bobby....?

Mick questions Linda 鈥� she definitely wants this baby doesn鈥檛 she? Linda promises that she does. Shirley鈥檚 giving Mick the silent treatment, she鈥檚 not happy that Mick interfered with her leaving with Buster. When Shirley suggests that she鈥檚 not necessarily going to be sticking around, Mick gives her a good reason to stay 鈥� Linda鈥檚 pregnant. In Blades, Shirley tries to convince Dean that Mick was right 鈥� they can get to know Buster when he gets out of prison. Dean is unimpressed that Mick has managed to bring Shirley around to his way of thinking. Shirley suggests that Dean come to the Vic for a drink later to clear the air. In Blades, Dean takes his bad mood out on Lola, which Stacey clocks. Stacey takes Dean to one side and tells him to get a grip 鈥� if he carries on the way he is then what they鈥檝e got is over.

Dean arrives in the Vic and asks for Mick, wanting to clear the air. The atmosphere soon turns sour again when Shirley admits that Buster has been given an extra month inside. As Dean and Mick bicker, Shirley tells Mick to leave it. When Dean questions why Shirley鈥檚 taking Mick鈥檚 side again, Shirley relents and tells Dean that Linda鈥檚 pregnant. When Mick returns, Dean calls a truce. Out of earshot of anyone else, Dean congratulates Linda; she鈥檚 shocked that he knows. Dean is adamant that he wants to know if the baby鈥檚 his, but Linda stands firm that it鈥檚 not.

When Shabnam pokes fun at Masood in front of Kush about his lack of exercise, Masood desperately tries to stand up for himself, claiming that his post round is a strenuous work out. When Kush mis-interprets this and assumes he runs it, he suggests the pair of them go running together. Masood and Kush head for a run. Masood struggles to keep up. Later, Masood鈥檚 face falls when Kush tells him that he鈥檚 signed them up for a half marathon.
