Today's episode kicked off with Max Branning's (Jake Wood) suspicions about Mark Fowler (Stephen Aaron-Sipple) being confirmed.
Armed with his evidence, Max and girlfriend Cindy Beale (Michelle Collins) publicly accused him, and Lauren Beale (Jacqueline Jossa) leapt to his defence. Having teamed up with him to sell some dodgy motors, she couldn't risk being implicated.
Suddenly, Grant Mitchell (Ross Kemp) appeared and made another attempt to connect with his estranged son. He said that he was the one responsible, and not Mark.
However, not satisfied with Grant's explanation, Max decided to contact the authorities and invite them round to his flat. They wanted to speak to Lauren, and she alerted the Mitchells to what was unfolding.
Grant, who had already bought his ticket to return to Portugal, grabbed his bags and prepared to leave. Sister Sam (Kim Medcalf) also checked in for the same flight - with Phil reckoning that she was stepping into their late mum Peggy's shoes by keeping a watchful eye over Grant.
Before leaving, he rushed back into the house to retrieve his passport, and had a final conversation with Mark. Sadly, it seemed the two were never going to be able to put their problems to one side when Mark asserted that he didn't need a mate, or a father.
As Phil raced his brother and sister off the airport, a taxi rolled into the Square. The passenger? Sharon Watts!
Last week, it seemed like Sharon and Vicki's mum Michelle would be staying in the US while the ceremony took place. Vicki explained to Kathy Beale (Gillian Taylforth) that she'd told them not to spend a ridiculous amount of money on flights.

She's not the only old face to return to Walford this week - Whitney Dean (Shona McGarty) came back yesterday to tell Zack Hudson (James Farrar) that she'd found herself a new fella. He was hopeful of a reunion, and in spite of not being able to win over Vicki, alluded to her husband-to-be Ross Marshall (Alex Walkinshaw) that she could be cheating again.
