Ronnie asks Phil for help fleeing the country

Ronnie returns home, having been charged with assaulting a police officer following the previous night's incident with DCI Marsden. She also tells the family that the police definitely have new information, which is why she was released early. Surprised to see that Ronnie's been released so early, Jack offers his help but she rebuffs his advances. Later, Ronnie bumps into Marsden again and the pair have cross words. Marsden thanks her for effectively handing herself in to the police, while Ronnie maintains that just because she gave her a black eye, that doesn't automatically mean she's capable of killing he father. Marsden, however, reminds her that she's shown her true colours, before suggesting that she's a prosecutor's dream.

Later, with her bags packed, Ronnie turns to Phil for help in leaving the country. Phil, however, insists that Marsden has no new evidence as she's bluffing to cause problems. Phil's taken aback by Ronnie's reaction, though, when he admits that he knows about Marsden's 'new witness'. Desperate to leave, Ronnie asks for Phil's help in retrieving her passport. The pair argue as Phil suggests that she'd be foolish to run, while Ronnie asks if he killed Archie. Phil denies the accusation and declines to help her escape Walford. Down in the bar, Marsden turns up as the locals celebrate Dot and Jim's anniversary. During the toast, everyone falls silent as they hear police sirens. Marsden surveys everyone's reaction but fails to notice that Ronnie's wandered out of the door…

Meanwhile, an anxious Bradley expresses his concerns to Max that he and Stacey will be forced to spend their lives looking over their shoulders. An agitated Bradley calls Stacey who suggests that they meet in The Vic to finalise the arrangements for Dot and Jim's surprise anniversary party. At the Car Lot, Jack tells his brother that they need toconvince Bradley to tell the police everything - or he well, as he's not letting Ronnie go down for a crime she didn't commit. Max is furious by Jack's ultimatum and points out that the only way he could know that Ronnie didn't kill Archie is if he killed him. Jack laughs off the accusation and reiterates his deadline - he has until 4pm to persuade Bradley to confess otherwise he'll go to Marsden himself.

Having heard nothing from Max, Jack's about to walk into the station when Max stops him in his tracks and begs him not to go through with it. Max turns up for Dot and Jim's anniversary party without Jack but Jack soon appears, as does Marsden.

Elsewhere, Becca's disappointed when Bradley tells her that the holiday he's planning is only for him and Stacey; Billie decides to help Whitney learn to ride the moped and revise the highway code; Ricky turns to Zainab for help in cooking Bianca a romantic meal; Minty's concerned about Manda and tries to find out why but Manda's evasive; Dot feels guilty about losing her temper with Dotty the previous day and promptly apologises; Zainab becomes frustrated and nearly tells Ricky about Bianca's liaison with Leon; and following an awkward moment with Todd, Whitney heads out with Billie.

Also, Minty attempts to arrange Ricky's stag night; Dot finds Jim's anniversary present to her; Whitney tries to move Billie's bag on the moped but he grabs it, not wanting her to see its contents; Manda tells Minty that she knows about his visits to Sam in prison and asks Minty if she still likes him - but Minty's silent; Whitney and Todd head to the café to talk; Dotty uses Dot's guilt to her advantage, much to Sonia and Jim's concern; and when Bianca criticises her cooking, Zainab spitefully tells Ricky that Bianca slept with Leon.
