Michael and Vanessa's plan revealed
Oct 4th
Ian Beale remains loyal to returnee Mandy Salter when he sacrifices his own ambitions to stick up for her.
In scenes which air next month, Ian gets anxious about a forthcoming council event as he knows that he'll need to impress people to get a place on the committee.
Ian is particularly worried that Mandy will embarrass him at the event, and when they arrive together, the pair are in for a shock when a pompous member of the committee recognises Mandy from strip clubs.
The committee member soon propositions Mandy, angering Ian so much that he lifts up a cake and shoves it in the man's face!
An EastEnders source commented: "At first Ian wants to impress the council so he can get on the committee, but when he hears one of the members insulting Mandy, something in him snaps.
"Mandy is happy when she realises that Ian is willing to stick up for her, even if it means jeopardising his place on the committee."

Monday
It's the day of Craig's visit to Albert Square, but the atmosphere is tense between Michael and Vanessa. Aware that collecting toy frogs is one of Craig's hobbies, Michael suggests that a frog treasure hunt would be a fun way for the family to break the ice. Eddie agrees and suggests that Michael and Vanessa should work together to organise it. Later, Craig arrives as planned and the day goes well as he enjoys the company of his family and has fun with the treasure hunt.
As the day continues, though, things take a turn for the worse when Craig overhears Michael ordering Vanessa to end her relationship with Eddie. Craig soon shares this information with Eddie, who confronts Michael over his behaviour. Michael insists that he's just trying to protect Eddie from Vanessa's gold-digging ways and, although Eddie dismisses this, it's clear that Michael's words have struck a chord. Back at home, Eddie does some detective work as he goes through Vanessa's belongings, and it's not long before he finds a bag full of £50 notes. When Vanessa returns home, she sees that someone has rummaged through her clothes and left a note containing the words "I know"…
Meanwhile, Phil's woes continue as someone has sprayed graffiti across the front of the café. When Phil and Ben later see Patrick at The Vic, Phil orders Alfie to throw Patrick out. However, Alfie and Kat stand up to Phil, reminding him that they're in charge and suggesting that he should be the one to leave. Kim also gets in on the act by claiming that Phil is targeting Patrick because of his race. Furious that he isn't getting what he wants, Phil makes the shock decision to throw everyone out of the pub - including Alfie and Kat!
Elsewhere, Christian agrees to train Abi and Lola after two older boys steal Abi's phone; Mandy finds an invitation to a council event in Ian's pocket and makes it clear that she wants to go along; and Tyler angrily pushes Whitney away and later tells her that he knows about her past.

Tuesday
Vanessa feels backed into a corner after Eddie found her money, so she finally tells him that Michael paid her to break up his relationship with Carol. She proves her allegations by showing him CCTV footage of Michael handing over the money. Vanessa also informs Eddie of how Michael deliberately mismatched Tyler's boxing fight in a twisted revenge plan. Eddie seeks confirmation of this claim from Jack and realises that Vanessa's telling the truth. However, when he sees Michael, Eddie leads his son into a false sense of security - pretending everything is fine. Later, Vanessa packs her bags and gets ready to leave, but Eddie asks her to stay - revealing that he has a plan to destroy Michael…
Meanwhile, Kat is desperate to get back into The Vic, but Phil rejects her and Alfie's pleas. Janine soon swoops in by writing Phil a cheque for the pub, but he tears it up. Later, Phil sees Patrick and Ben arguing again and heads over with a baseball bat. Patrick pushes Ben to tell the truth, but the teen insists he has nothing to hide. Soon afterwards, Ben's behaviour takes an unexpected turn after Lola challenges him to a fight and embarrasses him by pinning him to the ground and branding him a "fairy". Losing his temper, Ben smacks Lola in the face with his elbow.
Elsewhere, Ian is feeling nervous about today's council event, knowing that he needs to impress Gordon Bags to get a place on the committee. As the event gets under way, Gordon recognises Mandy from strip clubs and propositions her. When Ian hears Gordon insulting Mandy, he sticks up for her by shoving a cake in Gordon's face. As a food fight ensues, it's clear that Ian no longer cares about a place on the committee.
Also today, Fatboy suggests that Whitney should apply for work experience at the nursery, and Tyler tries to apologise to Whitney and she's touched when he makes a romantic gesture.

Thursday
Eddie is still keen for revenge against Michael, but continues to play happy families with his son in a bid to hide his true intentions. An oblivious Michael is touched when Eddie sends him off on a job, saying that working for the business makes him part of the family. Soon afterwards, Eddie begins to plot as he gives Vanessa the keys to the boxing gym's safe. He promises that Michael is away and that the CCTV isn't on. Offering an incentive to go through with the plan, Eddie reminds Vanessa that they'll soon be on a beach in Spain.
Vanessa arranges a place to meet up with Eddie later and visits the gym as planned. However, once she's taken the money from the safe, she realises that the CCTV camera is recording her after all and wonders what she should do next. At the same time, Eddie tells Anthony and Tyler that they're going to Spain with Craig. However, neither wants to go, as Tyler hopes to stay in Walford to be with Whitney, and Anthony wishes to see things through with the antiques business after all his recent hard work. When the boys reveal that Michael will soon be back, Eddie reluctantly tells them the shocking truth about their half-brother. How will they react? Will Eddie get revenge against Michael? And will Vanessa and Eddie leave together?
Meanwhile, Phil calls the police when he sees that his car has been vandalised, knowing that he'll need a crime reference number to claim on the insurance. At the same time, Christian sees Ben throw a can of spray paint in the bin as they train together in the gardens. Explaining why he was behind the graffiti attacks, Ben tells Christian that he wanted to show everyone what Phil is really like in the hope that he'd then leave Patrick alone.
Christian can see what's been going on and advises Ben to come out as gay as soon as possible. Taking the advice, Ben admits to Phil how the whole thing started - he threatened Patrick to stay silent after Patrick saw him kissing someone. When Phil asks why him kissing someone would be such a secret, Ben's silence speaks volumes. As Phil goes to leave, he pushes Ben out of the way and the troubled teen bruises his eye on the sink as he falls.

Friday
Jay quizzes Ben about why he has a black eye, but Ben refuses to give anything away. However, when Ian sees Ben, he knows that Phil must be responsible. Ian confronts Phil over the matter, but Phil orders him not to get involved - promising that he's going to fix everything.
Later, Ben visits Patrick and apologises for everything that's happened in the past fortnight. Patrick offers some advice to Ben, saying that he should make sure Phil truly listens to him. When father and son come face-to-face again, Phil says that he wants their previous conversation to be forgotten and they can start again with a clean slate. However, Ben finally stands up to his father, shouting at him to sit down and listen…
Meanwhile, it's the day of Tanya's latest hospital appointment and Lauren wants to come along to support her. However, Tanya pushes her daughter away, insisting that she should go to school. At the hospital, a nurse advises Tanya that she needs a good support network at home and her words strike a chord. Later, back on the Square, Tanya goes to the pub with Rainie - intending to confide in her over the cancer. In the end, though, Tanya can't go through with it. When Tanya returns home, she finally opens up to Lauren and is grateful for her support.
Elsewhere, Zainab agrees to go out for dinner with Yusef but soon changes her mind when she begins to fear that people could get the wrong idea. Putting plan B into action, Yusef meets up with Afia and they both head to the house to enjoy a takeaway with Zainab. As they eat together, Yusef makes a shock announcement - revealing that he's moving back to Pakistan for a job.
Does Yusef want Zainab to go back with him to Pakistan?
