Jack is hurt when Amy demands that he stay out her life, and Denise pleads with him to tread carefully. The couple head to the school to discuss Amy's problems, but Jack becomes fixated on Denzel, asking if there's been any change in his daughter's behaviour since the young lad's arrival. Denise tries to stop this line of questioning, and she later confides in sister Kim Fox (Tameka Empson).

Just as Denise and Kim walk in, Jack lashes out at Howie. When Denise steps in to calm things down, ungrateful Jack shouts that Amy is his daughter, not hers. Will Jack ever learn his lesson?

There's some more considerate parenting going on elsewhere, as in between being used as Jack's punching bag, lovely Howie hopes to support son Denzel, who is struggling to cope with the unfolding gossip and the situation with Amy. As Patrick Trueman (Rudolph Walker) offers him some words of wisdom, Howie wishes he could find a way to reach his son as easily as Patrick can.

Later in the week, the internet goes down and Patrick and Howie convince Denzel to pass the time by playing a game of dominoes with them.

Alfie tries to convince ex-wife Kat Slater (Jessie Wallace) that he has everything under control at home with the boys. But this couldn't be further from the truth, as when he challenges the kids to guess the code to Phil's safe, it sets off a disastrous chain of events. Together, they soon work out the code, and find serious cash inside the safe just as Sam turns up.

Alfie hurriedly ensures the cash is returned to its rightful place, and is soon distracted as he juggles problems at the cab office as well as attempting to get to the shops to buy a video game for Tommy (Sonny Kendall). When Alfie drives Vi Highway (Gwen Taylor) to bingo, he has just enough time for his errand - only for a masked gunman to jump into his cab!

The man, Keith, has robbed a building society and orders Alfie to act as a getaway driver - but Alfie takes a risk and drives to the shop anyway. His luck runs out when Stacey Slater (Lacey Turner) reveals she knows all about his safe code game with the kids. Keith overhears that Phil's safe contains £30k and instructs Alfie to take him there, still holding him at gunpoint. As Alfie stews over the missing money, he's amused when Tommy offers to sort it for him. Alfie tries to get Mick Carter (Danny Dyer) to invest in a 'food festival', but he declines. How will Alfie get out of this one?

The following day, Zack is left frustrated when Whitney doesn't seem bothered about him, but Felix spots that she is putting up a front over Zack.
