Honey comes up with an idea to cheer Ronnie up, but how will she react? Lee and Nancy reach breaking point, threatening to tear the Carter family apart.

Babe, Linda and Mick congratulate Lee and Whitney. Linda has bought wedding magazines and Whitney has already told Bianca the news. Nancy comes in and ruins the atmosphere. Later, Linda asks Nancy to apologise to Lee and when she refuses Linda accuses her of acting like a toddler with her Mr Frosty machine. Lee enters; it’s his induction day at the Rat. Linda tells Mick she always thought they’d be like the Von Trapp’s. Whitney finds Lee downstairs and he shows her a football shaped money bank in which he is going to collect the money for her ring. She tells him about Babe scheming with Abi and, worried, he tells her to forget it. In the café Donna tells Nancy not to let her view of Whitney affect her relationship with her brother. Nancy suggests to Mick and Linda that they should visit Lee in the Rat later. Mick is proud of Nancy and has bought her a Mr Frosty machine. Lee walks up to the bar and Mick tells him the plan for later. Lee is shifty and admits that he told Thelma about Nancy’s epilepsy. Nancy flips out and runs upstairs. Linda follows her and finds Nancy packing her bags. She’s leaving…

Ronnie is having breakfast with Janet and Will. They are moving to Billy’s today. Honey tells Ronnie she will be back later to pick up the rest of their stuff. Ronnie feels sorry for Honey not being thrown a proper birthday party. Honey receives a text and takes the kids to school. Ronnie finds Billy as he comes out of the café and hands him a list of things to buy for Honey’s party and tells Jay to help. Honey returns to Ronnie’s with flowers and wine to find Ronnie in the hallway with a large Red Hart attached to her top. She has organised an Alice in Wonderland themed tea party. Honey is shocked to see everyone there and quickly gets out her phone. Billy takes it from her but she tells Pam that she might have done something stupid. Ronnie makes a quick speech before Phil enters, drunk. Pam suggests they play pin the tail on the donkey and Honey asks that they start by blindfolding Ronnie. She has spotted something outside the window. They blindfold Ronnie and spin her round. She reaches out and finds Jack stood in front of her. He explains that Honey told him that Ronnie missed him. Ronnie walks out. Billy follows her to the playground and they talk. Billy returns to Ronnie’s alone and Jack decides to leave. He gets into a cab and Ronnie jumps in after him. She asks if he came back for her and kisses him.

They make her see sense and she bins the papers. Kim bumps into Jordan in the café and asks if he would be interested in doing some DIY. She tells him that JJ needs someone to look up to. Jordan tells Denise that he is going back to college to do a carpentry course. He and JJ have brought a cake to celebrate. As Denise goes to get napkins Jordan sees the visitor papers and pulls them from the bin.
