EastEnders 3/11/09: Lucy and Jay Cover Their Tracks - Episode Discussion - Soaps

choc-a-bloc · 03-11-2009, 16:19

spoiler:
Stunned about having attacked Lucy, Jay stares at her as she lies motionless on the floor. Regaining consciousness, Lucy asks Jay what happened and he claims that he just found her. He helps her back to the Beales' where Ian's looking after Oscar. While Jane talks to Ian about adopting, Jay walks in with a dishevelled Lucy. Ian's furious that she's been mugged and goes to call the police, which visibly unnerves Jay. Concerned that she'll be caught out as the blackmailer, Lucy puts Ian off the idea. Ian tries to give Jay a £10 reward, but he declines and informs Ian that Lucy's attacker was after her new phone. Dr Al checks Lucy's injuries and he suggests that she go to the hospital as she could have concussion. With the phone in his pocket, Jay panics when Ian asks Lucy for the number. Jay makes a swift exit and bins the phone in the Square gardens.

Later, Ian returns from the hospital without Lucy, who's been admitted. As Ian's collecting a few of Lucy's belongings, Jane tries to help, but he says that she's too busy looking after Oscar. Jane reveals that she's been prevented from having a child of her own and an argument ensues. Ian insists that she has to move on, before viciously screwing up the adoption papers. A tearful Jane uncrumples the papers, drops them in a folder and hides them away.

Meanwhile, Archie's dismissive of Janine's plot to burn down The Vic but she explains how authentic it would look - they'll make it look like an inside job so the insurance company doesn't pay up, forcing the Mitchells to sell as the family's money has been usurped by Sam's surety fund. Billy soon interrupts their discussion but when Janine begins insulting Peggy, Archie suggests that she leave. Out on the Square, Archie's handed a flyer for 'The Vic On Tour's bonfire event but Peggy snatches it from him, insisting that he's not invited. Later, Archie turns up at Janine's flat. When Ryan's out of the way, Archie hands her a box of matches - they're going to frame Billy for The Vic fire, just as Billy and Jay raise a toast to Archie…

Elsewhere, Ian sends Jane an SOS message to help with Oscar's nappy; Denise isn't best pleased by Owen's presence in The Vic; Syed and Christian attempt to intercept the blackmailer's letter to Syed when Masood walks into the café with the post; Liz takes pleasure in telling Denise that Lucas has been 'bashing more than his Bible'; Christian's shocked when he opens the letter; Owen unveils his injuries to a dumbfounded Denise but quickly leaves when everyone presumes that Lucas was responsible; Christian's confused when he calls the blackmailer's phone and sees Masood with it, having retrieved Lucy's missing phone from the bin in the Square; Lucas confesses to Denise that he caused Owen's injuries, before Denise takes him to Dot's to apologise to him; and Christian's stunned to hear that Lucy was mugged and realises that she's the blackmailer.

looks ok

Artymags · 03-11-2009, 18:08

I hop the revolting Lucy gets her comeuppance.

Greenteajenny · 03-11-2009, 19:01

I really don't like Lucy's character, she is such a nasty spiteful piece of work. Ian is so up himself, and looks down on others, yet he has not done a particularly good job of raising Lucy because she has such a nasty side to her character.

I hope she gets all she deserves, but she probably won't.
Definitely hope she goes on a gap year or two one day!

flbkab · 03-11-2009, 19:21

LOL at Ian. Poor Oscar.

choc-a-bloc · 03-11-2009, 19:31

"Oscar Branning, you're fired! Ian Beale, you're hired!"

Why can I see it being the other way round in reality.

Aww Oscar's cute!

Sez_babe · 03-11-2009, 19:31

Ha! Ian on the Apprentice!

capricorn_night · 03-11-2009, 19:31

Sez_babe · 03-11-2009, 19:32

choc-a-bloc · 03-11-2009, 19:32

Lucy sounds like she's been strangled.
