1. Carl’s big power play backfires

Ronnie is left reeling when he realises Carl has been trying to strong-arm Debbie into handing over the hotel. Not one to sit quietly, Ronnie urges her to stand firm and not give in. But Carl clearly thinks he’s already won. He swaggers into the hotel, helps himself to a drink like he owns the place – and then drops a bombshell when Ryan challenges him. In a move that’s as bold as it is brutal, Carl fires Ryan on the spot and announces he’s now the boss.

Later, after Debbie summons him to the flat, Carl likely expects another victory. But Debbie has other ideas. She draws a firm line, refusing to hand over the hotel and instead offering him cash to disappear from her life for good. It’s a tense stand-off – and with Carl, you never quite know how he’ll react when he doesn’t get his way.

2. Eva hatches a risky plan

Eva isn’t backing down either. After some crafty advice from Leanne, she takes matters into her own hands and searches Will’s room. What she finds could be the key to everything – a burner phone with just one number stored.

Sensing an opportunity, Leanne encourages Eva to send a message pretending to be Will, setting up a meet. It’s a bold gamble that could blow everything wide open… but will Megan fall for it, or see straight through the plan?

4. George issues a serious warning

Summer is still shaken and opens up to George about the harsh things Theo has said to her. Protective as ever, George wastes no time confronting Theo and delivers a clear warning – stay away from Summer and Todd, or there will be consequences.

5. Olivia returns for Jodie

And as if that wasn’t enough, there’s an awkward blast from the past at No.6. A clearly uncomfortable Jodie introduces Olivia to Shona, revealing she used to be her nanny. Keen to keep things friendly, Shona insists she stays for tea… but something suggests this reunion might not be quite as cosy as it sounds.
