spoiler:
In the cellar at The Vic, Archie ignites a strip of newspaper, oblivious to the fact that Peggy's upstairs pouring herself a drink. Pouring a bottle of vodka over the flames, Archie smiles, before throwing it across the room. Hearing the smash, Peggy goes to the cellar door, baseball bat in hand. She shouts that she's called the police, prompting a panicky Archie to start extinguishing the flames. Later, Peggy walks around the barrel store and calculates the damage. In a bid to appease her curiosity, Archie lies and states that he saw two kids running out of the gate while he was walking past. Peggy, however, is still puzzled as to why the arsonist chose the only night in recent times when the building was empty. Archie manages to leave but before he does, he insists to Peggy that the only women he cares about live in The Vic.

Later, Archie's debriefing Janine on the evening's events and suddenly realises that he left Billy's wallet in the cellar. Over the road, Peggy finds it on the floor, confused as to why it's there. Ronnie asks Peggy if she wants any help, but Peggy insists that the fire was the work of kids and not to worry, before ushering her off to bed. With that, Peggy calls Archie. Returning to The Vic, Archie asks Peggy why she called him and she explains that she didn't get a chance to thank him for putting out the fire. As Peggy goes to get Archie a drink, he wonders what she's planning. Over a drink, the pair reminisce about the old days. Talk soon returns to the fire and Peggy questions her husband why he never shouted that there was a fire. Archie's adamant that he was too busy contending with the flames to think.

Peggy then shows Archie the wallet she found on the floor of the barrel store and asks how it ended up in there, as Billy's not been in The Vic since they had their argument. Archie then explains that the kids who started the fire probably stole the wallet, too. One step ahead, Peggy points out that a wallet thief would have stolen the money inside. Archie tries to laugh off Peggy's insinuations, but she bluntly suggests that he was the one who started the fire and claims that he planted Billy's wallet there to make it look like he was the culprit. Archie checks that the pub's secure and insists that he had nothing to do with the fire. Peggy can't look at Archie but all of a sudden, he grabs her and forces her to look him in the eye. At that moment, Peggy grabs Archie and kisses him…

Elsewhere, Masood tries to play down his kiss with Jane; Denise goes to apologise for throwing him out of the house; Jane reassures Masood that she won't tell Ian about their kiss; Lucas spots Denise leaving Dot's house; Jane finds Ian asleep on the sofa with a sign asking her to wake him; Lucas prays for forgiveness, before pocketing a knife and heading over to Dot's to see Owen; Ian tells Jane that he'll adopt with her if she wants to; with his hand on the knife, Lucas confronts Owen and insists that he leave Walford.

Also, Jane realises that Ian would only be adopting for her sake and states that it won't work; Owen moves closer to Lucas and Lucas grips harder on the knife; before Lucas leaves, he gives Owen a week to leave and when they shake hands, Owen's hand is covered in Lucas's blood; and Jane packs her bags to leave but Ian states that if she walks out of his and the kids' lives, she can't return

How gullable is Janine - archie doesn't want the vic for them he wants it for himself so he can get all his family back, he is just keeping her onside, also he knows she is sleeping with ryan whilst trying to act like it is him she wants, i think this storyline is going to be worthwhile just to see Janine's face when she realises that she has been played cos atm she thinks she has got archie right where she wants him - but what is peggy playing at after everything he has done to them!!

flbkab · 06-11-2009, 17:15

I don't think it's only Archie thats playing her going by the dodgy looks from Ryan last week. It might actually be good for her to be at the receiving end for once, she is starting to show little bits of humility as it is.

Lucas is trying to be a good man. But he's not doing a very good job so far.
