Airs on Monday, October 6 2008 at 20:00 BST on BBC One
Bianca's still upset over Whitney's behaviour but Tony tries to convince her that her attitude isn't a big deal. Later, however, Bianca finds her clothes strewn across the front garden and discovers that Whitney's locked her out of the house. In despair, Bianca turns to Dr Merritt for help. Concerned for Whitney, the doctor suggests that Bianca takes Whitney to see a psychiatrist. Later, as Bianca and Tony enjoy a quiet moment together, they hear a crash outside the living room door. Much to her shock, Bianca finds a smashed plant pot at the bottom of the stairs.
Meanwhile, Pat has arranged a memorial plaque for Frank to be placed in the gardens and intends to hold a small ceremony. She asks Peggy is she'll make some sandwiches for afterwards. Archie, however, tells Peggy not to bother making any food for the gathering, suggesting that if Pat hasn't let go of the past, that's her problem. Tony seizes the opportunity to speak to Whitney, while Pat and the rest of the family unveil the plaque in the gardens.
When they descend on The Vic, Pat questions Peggy as to why she wasn't at the ceremony and is furious when she realises that Peggy hasn't made any sandwiches, either. A confrontation ensues and Pat suggests that Peggy's changed.
Later, Peggy storms around to the cab office and confronts Pat over her accusation that she's changed. Pat's stern with her old friend and tells her that Archie has a hold over her. Peggy, however, refuses to listen.
Elsewhere, Peggy's not happy with Suzy walking around naked upstairs at The Vic; Bradley buys Dot a new cooker; Jane sends Lee a text from Christian's phone; Dawn asks Billy to accompany her to Jase's funeral; and Archie flirts with Suzy, completely unaware that Danielle is cleaning upstairs in The Vic and has heard everything.

It's the day of Jase's funeral and Dawn's not sure that she's going to get through it. She's happy, though, when Minty and Garry offer their support. At the church, a sheepish Billy takes a seat at the back. Jay stands up to make a speech about his dad, but he chokes up. Billy instinctively rushes to the front and offers to read the rest for him. Afterwards, Dawn stands and announces that she'd like to say a few words, but Jay objects and blames her for Jase's death, prompting her to run out of the church in tears. At the end of the service, Billy tries to give Jay a wad of Jase's blood money, but Jay isn't interested.
Dawn's packing to leave Walford, while Garry tries to persuade her that she's not responsible for Jase's death. However, she's adamant that there's no reason for her to stay around. As Garry prepares to take Dawn to the train station, Garry suggests that she stays with him for a few days.
Meanwhile, Archie's pleased that Phil and Suzy are arguing and is even happier that Suzy's reciprocating his flirting. After Suzy tells Archie that she's 'expensive', Archie takes her literally and buys her a necklace. Coolly, Suzy tells him to take it back. He's not bothered, though: he loves playing the game. Later, Suzy struts into The Vic wearing the mink coat Phil refused to buy her earlier on. She quietly thanks Archie for it, while Danielle watches on in complete disbelief.
Later, Danielle confesses to Ronnie that Archie's been flirting with Suzy and doesn't appear to care about Peggy. Speaking to Archie alone, Ronnie tells him to leave Walford or she'll blow the whistle on him. However, Peggy enters the room and instead, manages to turn the conversation against Ronnie.
After Archie reprimands Danielle about blabbing to Ronnie, he gives Peggy the necklace originally intended for Suzy. Afterwards, Peggy heads across to see Pat and confesses that she might have been right about Archie after all...
Elsewhere, Christian's happy that Lee spent the night; Bradley buys Dot a new car and an MP3 player; Tony offers to take Whitney to a psychiatrist; Dot's not impressed when she sees Lee and Christian in a clinch on Arthur's bench; Dot discovers where Bradley's money originated from; and Dr Merritt leaves a message for Bianca to let her know that Whitney didn't go to see the psychiatrist.

Bianca catches a glimpse of the answering machine and sees that there's a message waiting for them. She asks Liam to listen to it, but Tony quickly intercepts when he hears that it's Dr Merritt. He deletes the message, but doesn't see Bianca at the top of the stairs. She immediately challenges him, but Tony quickly formulates an answer – what would the social think if they caught wind of one of her kids going to see a psychiatrist? Bianca's determined to get Whitney to the psychiatrist, but Tony thinks he's successfully talked her out of the idea. Instead, Bianca decides that she's going to take Whitney away for a couple of weeks in the hope of finding out what's bothering her.
Meanwhile, a suspicious Peggy spots Archie close to Suzy on the landing upstairs at The Vic. Peggy turns to Pat in the hope that she can help her uncover what Archie's up to. Pat, however, warns her to tread carefully, but Peggy's adamant that she wants the truth. Archie interrupts their conversation when he walks in and he's immediately wary. Later, Pat tells Peggy that she has to test Archie to see if she can trust him.
Archie receives a text message from Suzy arranging to meet him at Fargo's that night. Peggy sees him pick up his phone and questions who the message is from, but Archie covers. As he's getting ready for the meal, Suzy walks in looking for her phone and it dawns on Archie that he's been set up. Turning the tables on his fiancée, a riled Archie tells her that if she can't trust him, they'll have to postpone the wedding until she can...
Elsewhere, Honey calls Billy and asks him if he wants to see the kids; Dawn decides to stay in Walford a little longer; Roxy and Sean return from their honeymoon; Jane suggests that Garry cook Dawn a meal; Billy visits Jay in the children's home; Christian and Lee go out for a romantic meal; and Billy asks Jay if he wants to live in Walford with him.
Archie continues to wind up Ronnie
Airs on Friday, October 10 2008 at 20:00 BST on BBC One
Stacey invites Danielle to R&R with her for a liquid lunch, but despite having three jobs, she claims she has no money because she's saving. Stumbling upon the guest list on Ronnie's computer, Stacey sneakily adds their names onto it. While Stacey ponders what Danielle could be keeping from her, Ronnie storms into the pub and confronts Danielle over adding names to guest list. Stacey, however, immediately owns up. Danielle's upset by Ronnie's outburst and leaves, closely followed by Archie. Outside, Danielle thrusts the letter she's taken from Ronnie's desk into his hands and he's stunned by its contents.
Later, Archie turns up at R&R and shows her that he has her letter. Archie pretends that he's heard from Joel (Ronnie's first love and father to her daughter) who he had some interesting things to say. Ronnie quickly realises that Archie's lying about his contact with Joel. Spitefully, Archie sets fire to the letter she wrote to him. Fuming, Ronnie marches through the market and sacks Danielle on the spot for stealing the letter and giving it to Archie. Stacey looks on and Danielle's evident upset is enough to confirm that she's hiding something. Will Danielle come clean?
Meanwhile, Whitney tells Tony that she's going away with Bianca for a couple of weeks. Worried, he persuades Bianca to catch a later train. Tony speaks to Whitney alone and tells her that he doesn't know how he's going to cope while she's away. Whitney's thrown by his apparent honesty and tells him that it's his fault that they're in this mess. Capitalising on her emotional vulnerability, Tony suggests that they give it another go. But will Whitney agree?
Elsewhere, Billy asks Peggy if Jay can move into The Vic; Archie tells Peggy that Pat can't be her matron of honour; Roxy and Jane persuade Christian to let them meet Lee; Jay arrives at The Vic; and Lee's visit doesn't go quite as Christian had hoped.
