Pat and Harvey are getting on like a house on fire but he's thrown when Pat mentions that Peggy's due to return from her break later that day. Rushing out, Harvey hands Pat a parting gift - a set of cheap earrings. Pat isn't best pleased when she discovers the receipt. Across the Square, Peggy wanders into The Vic and soon learns that Ben's now living with Ian. Harvey arrives and feigns surprise at Peggy's sudden return, before handing over a pair of expensive earrings. He also hands over a pair of theatre tickets but Peggy lies that she has a family commitment and so can't attend. Turning to Pat, Harvey offers her the tickets instead and she happily agrees. After a call from Peggy, Pat heads over to The Vic, where Peggy makes a shock revelation - she's found another lump.
Meanwhile, Fatboy arranges a road trip to his uncle's house in Hampshire. With a party on the cards, Peter feels he should go but worries that the event's so close to exam period. After Lucy fakes a school note about a 'revision trip', Peter hands the letter to Ian, who reluctantly agrees that they can attend. Fatboy picks Peter and Lucy up from the house and Lucy's surprised to realise that Zsa Zsa and Whitney are also going. Lucy attempts to make amends with Zsa Zsa over lying about the miscarriage but Zsa Zsa doesn't care. Her interest in exacting revenge on Leon, however, is piqued when she hears Lucy reiterate Leon's belief that he could have her back in an instant.
Furious about Leon's supposed attitude, Whitney's further enraged when Lucy reveals that he compared her to kissing a dead fish. Determined to attend the party with the boys, the girls remove the tyres from Fatboy's van and refuse to hand them back unless they can tag along. Later, the gang arrive at Fatboy's uncle's desolate cottage, where nobody has a signal on their phones.
Elsewhere, Carol hands Bianca and Ricky a letter from the education authority about Liam's schooling appeal - it's on Wednesday; Billie sits watching an old video message of Whitney on his phone but Carol tries to take his mind off the situation; Carol organises a practice appeal panel for Bianca, who crumbles under pressure; and Billie's upset to learn that Whitney's left for Hampshire with the rest of the gang.
Lucy's on a mission to destroy Leon but her plan requires the help of Zsa Zsa and Whitney. With the girls agreed on their course of action, they set to work. Mercy returns to the Square and attempts to call Fatboy, to no avail. With Billie having a similar problem with Whitney's phone and Mercy having overheard that they're at Fatboy's uncle's house in Hampshire, the pair soon head out into the country. Lucy suggests that the group go camping in the woods instead of arranging a party but Leon's the only guy up for it. Peter and Fatboy head off to the party instead. Leon and the girls play drinking games around the campfire and Whitney's a little thrown when she finds a battered doll nearby. Jealous of how close Leon is with Zsa Zsa, Lucy asks him to help collect more fire wood.
As Zsa Zsa heads into the woods to relieve herself, a scream echoes through and Leon panics about her safety. Zsa Zsa rushes back to camp with her hands covered in blood, insisting that there's something in the woods that tried to attack her. Terrified at the prospect of something or someone lurking in the woods, Leon bolts from the scene. The girls return to the cottage, leaving Leon wandering the woods alone. Whitney's further agitated, though, when she discovers the same battered doll on the welcome mat. Fatboy and Peter arrive at the party and are dragged away by two girls but Fatboy's interrupted by Mercy.
Later, Lucy heads out into the woods to meet Leon and admits that Zsa Zsa came up with the idea to scare him. Lucy tries to seduce him but Leon's not interested. Unimpressed that he spurned her advances, Lucy runs off into the night with their only torch. At the party, Fatboy's panicked when he realises that Peter's become embroiled in a fight with a girl's boyfriend, Vince. Billie steps in to break up the fight, allowing Fatboy, Peter and Mercy to get away. Fatboy's too drunk to drive and Peter takes the wheel, while Billie's forced to leave his moped behind. As Lucy returns to the cottage, Leon limps into the road. Peter, however, takes his eyes off the road for a second - and there's suddenly a loud thud against the van's bodywork…
Elsewhere, Pat's determined to persuade Peggy to attend the breast clinic but she's surprised to learn that Peggy already has an appointment; Bianca's nervous as she's introduced to the appeal panel; Pat and Peggy head into town together; Ricky takes Bianca outside for a drink to calm her nerves; Peggy's jubilant to have been given the all-clear at the clinic - the lump's nothing to worry about; Ricky suggests that Bianca think of all the panellists sat on a toilet; Peggy phones Harvey and reveals that she can now attend the theatre with him; Bianca manages to talk to the panel with confidence and she's delighted to hear that they'll learn the outcome within the week; and Harvey states that he can no longer attend himself, but undeterred, Peggy calls the theatre to book a ticket herself.

sPeter's upset about hitting the 'deer' and Mercy suggests that they stop and ask for help. Inside, Lucy offers to make Zsa Zsa and Whitney breakfast, while lying that she's already spoken to Leon. Billie, Mercy, Fatboy and Peter arrive and as Billie makes up with Whitney, Fatboy worries about Leon's whereabouts. The girls recount their successful plot to scare Leon and Fatboy over-eggs the party they were at the previous night. While out collecting firewood with Zsa Zsa, Fatboy discovers Leon's jacket, prompting him to bombard Lucy with question after question about Leon. Whitney decides to adopt a different approach to questioning Lucy but as she's about to walk into the room, she overhears her leaving Leon a voicemail. Talking into her phone, Lucy asks if Leon stayed out all night because of what happened between them.
Jumping to conclusions - and presuming that Lucy still has a thing for Leon - Whitney threatens to expose Lucy's devious plot to the rest of the gang. Lucy, however, hits back that she was trying to talk to Leon about the miscarriage but he wasn't interested in the slightest. Back inside, Whitney stands up for Lucy but Zsa Zsa lays into her, demanding to know where Leon is. Whitney, however, lies to protect Lucy, claiming that Leon stayed out to scare the girls like they scared him. Returning to the campsite, Leon's nowhere to be found but they do see a stash of empty beer bottles. At that point, Peter panics that he didn't hit a deer - he may have mown down Leon. As the gang retrace their steps, they're stunned to find a mobile phone ringing out, covered in blood…
Meanwhile, Pat and Peggy enjoy an afternoon shopping down Carnaby Street. Peggy secretly calls the theatre to check that she can pick up her tickets from the box office. While having a drink of champagne at a bar, two old men ask Pat and Peggy to join them. Andrew tries to sweet-talk Peggy, while Donald tries to charm Pat but both ladies send their respective suitors in the direction of the other woman. Realising that they've been trying to set each other up on dates, the pair make a run for it. The pair soon separate as they head off to meet their date for the evening. When they both turn up at the theatre, though, they realise that Harvey's been playing them both.
Elsewhere, Ricky and Bianca are delighted by how well the appeal went; Carol claims that she can ask a friend at the education office to check the result but Bianca wants to keep everything above board; Carol phones her mate Trish anyway; Carol learns that Liam's appeal had been unsuccessful; Bianca decides to home-school Liam but Carol suggests that they should fight the system; and Bianca's adamant that she has what it takes to be Liam's tutor.

Following the discovery of Leon's bloodied phone, Mercy suggests that their worst fear could be reality - Leon could be dead. Peter agrees to take the blame for the incident as he still believes that he knocked him down at the wheel of Fatboy's van. Arriving at the police station, Whitney suggests that Billie return to Walford as his involvement could destroy his chances of succeeding in the army.
Inside, Peter's about to own up to killing Leon when Fatboy steps up and explains what happened in the woods…
Meanwhile, Pat and Peggy bicker as Harvey manages to slip away. Giving chase, the pair pursue Harvey onto a sightseeing bus. Harvey's relieved as he thinks he's dodged his love interests but it's not long before Pat and Peggy make their presence known. Faced with a choice between them, Harvey refuses to choose. With that, they exact their revenge and publicly humiliate him, before vowing not to let a man come between them ever again.
Back on the Square, Harvey arrives at The Vic and explains how he can't choose between them. His suggestion that he continued dating them both at the same time is met with mixed views but when he tends to the call of nature, Pat and Peggy plot further revenge. Realising that he's only after sex, Peggy coaxes him upstairs and urges him to undress, before taking his clothes. Curious as to where Peggy's disappeared to, he heads downstairs to see Pat sitting at the bar. Embarrassed to have been set up, Harvey grabs a sheet and rushes out. Pat, however, snatches it away. Having sent Harvey packing, Pat and Peggy pack their cases and jump into a cab bound for the airport.
Elsewhere, Bianca's determined to prove Carol wrong and show that she's more than capable of home-schooling Liam; Bianca blames Carol for her poor education growing up; Liam's annoyed by Bianca and Carol's bickering and decides that he's going to King Edwards to work hard; and Liam tells Ricky that he has to show Bianca and Carol who's boss.

As Chelsea and Denise arrange a welcome home party, Liz turns up with Denise's sister Kim in tow. Arriving back on the Square, Lucas and Jordan head to the café, where they're surprised to see Ben. Retreating from the building, Lucas ushers Jordan home, while Ben continues to apologise for his actions. Finally turning up at home, Jordan and Lucas walk in on an inebriated Kim toasting Jordan. Before long, an argument breaks out between Kim and Liz when Kim suggests that Owen's either dead or lying in a gutter. Following a heart-to-heart with Denise about the men in their lives, Kim insists that Lucas is as bad as the rest of the men in the world.
Furious by Kim's suggestion, Denise embarks on a mission to prove her sister wrong. Despite Denise's best efforts to seduce him, Lucas storms out in disgust at her behaviour, prompting Kim to note that his temper will lead to his eventual downfall. Denise attempts to make up with Lucas in the hallway and as Lucas reaffirms his love for her, they quietly sneak to the bedroom for some time alone. Upstairs, however, Lucas breaks the intimacy by claiming that Kim turns Denise into a different woman. Later, a motor draws into a car park renowned for prostitutes - and inside sits Lucas…

Max soon arrives at the Lot and takes over from Darren, who's fixated by the flashy new woman of Walford. Handing her a price for the motor she's asking about, Max suggests that she meet him in The Vic if she's serious about buying. Vanessa eventually turns up at the pub and agrees to Max's deal. Back at the Car Lot, Vanessa signs some paperwork and slips her business card into Max's pocket.
