George nervously prepares to return to his parents\u2019 home for the first time in years for dad Eddie\u2019s award celebration.<\/p>\n

When George, Elaine Peacock (Harriet Thorpe), and his daughters Gina (Francesca Henry) and Anna (Molly Rainford) arrive, he\u2019s stunned by Eddie\u2019s sudden pride in him, and the way his dad\u2019s friends treat him like a hero.<\/p>\n

Eddie stuns George with a heartfelt speech about him, and George tells Elaine that he may have misread Eddie\u2019s behaviour: maybe his dad always loved him after all.<\/p>\n

But when Eddie\u2019s pal Gerald lets slip that the jury is going to love him, a confused George presses for more information.<\/p>\n

He learns that Eddie is facing trial for the racially motivated murder, and needs George to be a character witness! George is devastated as it dawns on him that Eddie only means to manipulate him.<\/p>\n

As the week continues, George tries to focus on Gina and her birthday, but when Eddie and Gloria arrive, George confronts them about the court case and orders them out.<\/p>\n

Gloria is desperate for George to help them, but he dismisses the situation and ends up having a heart-to-heart with Gina. As George talks about his childhood, he tries to excuse Eddie\u2019s behaviour, which infuriates Gina.<\/p>\n

When George works up the courage to look up Eddie\u2019s case, he calls his father and insists they talk\u2026<\/p>\n

2. George Knight learns the truth about his past<\/strong><\/h2>\n

When his parents return to The Vic, George demands to talk to Eddie alone. A painful confrontation leads George to unlock the truth about his childhood, Eddie\u2019s racist attitude and what really happened all those years ago.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Gloria tries to explain herself to Elaine, and begs her to help persuade George to testify for Eddie.<\/p>\n

Whatever happens next, George is left in turmoil after hearing some shattering revelations.<\/p>\n

During a training session with Denzel Danes (Jaden Ladega), George goes too far, and Elaine is horrified to see him lose it with the teen. George is then filled with self-hatred over being just like Eddie.<\/p>\n

Later, Elaine reluctantly accompanies Gloria to see George at the Boxing Den, where Gloria pleads with George to hear her out. Against Elaine\u2019s wishes, George agrees \u2013 but what will Gloria have to tell him?<\/p>\n

3. Johnny Carter returns \u2013 and punches Dean Wicks<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Johnny helps a drunk Linda up and is horrified by the state of his mum, quizzing his family over why she\u2019s gone so downhill so fast.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s then that Elaine reveals that Dean is back, and as Johnny goes to confront Dean, he\u2019s spotted by old friend Ben Mitchell (Max Bowden) who follows him into Beales\u2019 Eels.<\/p>\n

Ben has to drag Johnny away from Dean, and Johnny joins Ben and Callum Highway (Tony Clay) or a drink and a chat. But at closing time, Johnny punches Dean, warning him to leave Linda alone.<\/p>\n

Ben and Callum are concerned by Johnny\u2019s angry behaviour, and Ben soon promises to help get rid of Dean \u2013 but he assures Callum the plan will be legal and above board.<\/p>\n

Johnny plans to launch a civil case against Dean, until Callum explains that Linda was recorded claiming she lied about the rape thanks to Dean\u2019s manipulations.<\/p>\n

Johnny and Gina decide to work together to steal the confession from Dean and wipe it, and a sceptical Dean agrees to go out with Gina. But when Dean and Gina burst in, it seems he\u2019s rumbled the plan\u2026<\/p>\n

Johnny is determined to stop Linda from drinking by not letting her out of his sight, but this soon becomes too much for her.<\/p>\n

After secretly turning back to the bottle, Linda makes a show of herself by dropping Gina\u2019s birthday cake in front of everyone in The Vic.<\/p>\n

When Gina laughs at her, Johnny lashes out, having heard that she briefly dated Dean.<\/p>\n

As her son\u2019s plot to discredit Dean is exposed, Linda sees whats going on and forces herself to go in, despite her horror over being near Keanu Taylor\u2019s (Danny Walters) body in the caf\u00e9.<\/p>\n

During an argument between Johnny and Dean, a glass is smashed and Linda cuts her hand. Johnny can\u2019t believe it when Linda goes ballistic and shocks everyone. Can Johnny help his traumatised mum?<\/p>\n

But Amy and brother Ricky Branning (Frankie Day) are rattled when Denise reacts strangely to the bracelet they\u2019re trying to hide from her, unaware that she\u2019s hallucinating<\/a> seeing her missing \u2018D\u2019 necklace.<\/p>\n

Ricky wants to tell Jack about Denise\u2019s behaviour, but Amy begs him not to for fear of a split between Denise and Jack.<\/p>\n

Jack surprises Denise with a nice breakfast, but rejects her suggestion for a Valentine\u2019s night together, as he secretly wants to be with lover Stacey Slater (Lacey Turner)!<\/p>\n

Amy continues to worry about Denise, and offers to join her at work, where she continues to act out of character.<\/p>\n
