After the previous day's events, Marlon and Donna wake up after an uncomfortable night at the Dingles’. Desperate to find new accommodation before their meeting with social services, they’re forced to face the fact that the cramped Dingle homestead is their only option. At the meeting, they admit that they plan on staying at the Dingles, but the social worker thinks otherwise and lets the kids stay where they are. Donna storms to the Woolpack and blames Val for the mess they're in. Billy continues to court controversy in the village. He receives a cool reception from Alan, and is sent packing when Katie finds him at Butler's Farm helping Jo to fix her motorbike. Later when Jimmy squares up to him, a confused Daz instinctively steps in. Meanwhile, as Jimmy makes life on the bins hard for Billy, Kelly continues to fret over his presence.
