When Bianca fails to turn up for work, Kat arrives at the Butcher house
for an explanation. Bianca explains that Morgan has flooded the kitchen
and she's waiting for the plumber to arrive. Soon afterwards, Bianca
answers the door to newcomer Carl White. Assuming that he's the plumber,
Bianca lets him in and he fixes the blocked sink in no time. However,
Bianca is baffled when the real plumber then arrives - so who is Carl?
Carl
explains that he's the one who Bianca phoned earlier in the week. He
adds that he's an old friend of Derek's, and feigns surprise when he
hears that the villain is now dead. Kat is incredulous as Bianca then
freely discloses various information to Carl, including where Alice and
Joey live and how Ian had Derek's old lockbox. Once Carl has gone,
Bianca gets worried as she realises that she never even gave him her
address when they were on the phone - so how did he find her?
Carl's
next move is to visit Alice at Number 23, but when he finds an excuse
to look through some of Derek's old things, he is unnerved to find
nothing of importance. After finding out where Ian works, Carl heads
over to Scarlett's and starts asking Ian questions about his
relationship with Derek and the lockbox. Ian pretends never to have
heard of Derek, but Carl strongly suspects that he took the money from
the box and vows to return tomorrow at 8pm…
Meanwhile, Michael
heads to the hospital in the hope of seeing Scarlett there, but it soon
becomes clear that Janine isn't going to arrive with their daughter.
Michael loses his temper with the staff and is escorted out of the
building by security. Back at Number 23, an emotional Michael starts to
play with Tommy and he's thrilled when the little boy responds to him.
Kat is then left speechless when she overhears Michael telling Tommy
that he is his daddy.
Also today, Tanya decides to put Lauren
back in touch with Peter in the hope that he will help to sort her out,
while Ava is lost for words when Sam admits that he no longer has plans
to leave Walford as last night was too amazing.
