Masood overhears Zainab as she makes another mysterious phone call, asking someone to meet her. When Masood follows Zainab out of the house, he spots Zainab and Yusef talking and assumes that he was the person she wanted to meet. Confronting Zainab over the matter, he tells his wife that he can't trust her and storms off, ignoring her protestations that he is mistaken. Later, Masood finds Zainab in the café just as Syed walks in. Realising that it's actually Syed who she has agreed to meet, Masood has another argument with his wife. However, Syed tells Zainab not to listen to Masood and they both walk out. Later, Zainab tells Yusef that she now wants to accept his offer of a loan. When they go to talk to Masood about it, there's yet another row, but in a private moment later, Zainab makes it clear to Yusef that she still wants the loan as she believes it will save her family.

Meanwhile, as everyone prepares for a pub quiz night at The Vic, Ryan asks Alfie whether he will give Whitney a job and Alfie promises that they can have a proper chat about it later. However, when Ryan tells Whitney about his efforts, she isn't interested as she's worried that everyone will be gossiping about her. Later, as the quiz night is about to get under way, a man at the bar named Martin eyes Jane up as she sits with Christian. Jane decides to ask Martin to join their team and as the pair start getting on well, Martin asks Jane to invite him next time. Mo's team wins the quiz but, on Jean's suggestion, they give the prize money to Kat and Alfie as they need it most.

Elsewhere, Ben continues to use his laptop to share his troubles with Heather under the guise of 'Kevin'. When Jay notices that Ben isn't wearing his glasses, Ben makes an excuse but Jay later discovers that Ben's glasses are smashed in the bin and realises that he's being bullied again.

Also today, Alfie and Jean notice that Kat will only refer to Tommy as 'the baby' rather than by his name. When Alfie asks her about it, Kat says that Tommy is the name of the baby who died and it doesn't feel right to carry on using it.
