Lucas panics as the garden renovation begins

It's the day of the Booty auction and Roxy comes to blows with her sister in a bid to secure the premises. Going head-to-head at the auction, Roxy goes well over the limit she'd set herself but successfully fends her sister's bids. As Roxy celebrates her new purchase, Ronnie leaves with her pride in tatters. Storming home from the auction, Ronnie spots a woman waving goodbye to a young little girl who's been left on her own outside the tube station. Searching for her father, the girl holds up a photo and it's a face that Ronnie knows all too well. With that, Ronnie takes the girl's hand and walks down the road with her.

Meanwhile, Lucas begins to panic more than ever as the locals gather in the Square gardens in preparation to start work on the makeover. Concerned about keeping everyone away from Trina's tree, Lucas patrols its perimeter but is dumbstruck when Mo arrives with a metal detector, intent on searching for buried treasure. As the metal detector bleeps above the soil below Trina's tree, Lucas's heart sinks, convinced that Owen's body will be unearthed.

Lucas looks on as Mo digs through the soil but she's upset to find an old tin foil tray. Determined to put their stamp on the garden, Denise asks Roxy if she'll pay for a fountain for the centre of the garden, exactly where Trina's tree is. Lucas realises that he has a difficult task on his hands to keep Owen's corpse below ground.

Also, Jane and Ian arrange a meeting with Lucy's headmaster Mr Allcock to discuss Lucy's condition. Later, Lucy's up in arms when she learns that they've already arranged for her to be pulled from school in order that she can be home-tutored. She's further angered when she learns that Ian will be her teacher.

Elsewhere, Ricky confides in Minty that he can't afford to pay Billie's wages; Phil tries to impress Shirley with a bunch of flowers from Jean but she's unmoved; Shirley is delighted when Phil returns with a 'Shirley' tattoo inked on his arm; Minty encourages Ricky to tell Billie the truth, but Ricky's reluctant to upset the apple cart as he worries about spending six weeks on the sofa owing to Bianca's wrath; Shirley rumbles Phil's temporary tattoo when she rubs it off his skin, before admitting that he had her with the flower gesture; and Heather warns Phil not to hurt Shirley again.
