EastEnders’ Stacey Slater (Lacey Turner) is mortified in tonight’s episode when her daughter Lily repeats something she overheard her mum say.
Stacey and Kat Moon ( Jessie Wallace ) are ranting about Ruby Allen (Louisa Lytton) after she embarked on a relationship with Stacey’s ex husband, Martin Fowler.
Lily is listening in while she pretends to be too poorly to go in to school, after lying about where she got her brand new tablet.
She overhears Stacey make some horrible accusations about Ruby, including that she gave Martin the money for her birthday present just so she could flaunt it, and that she has daddy issues.

But later on, Stacey and Ruby are in the club together when there is a mistaken champagne delivery, and they end up chatting.
The former friends even begin to reminisce on the old days, before they became bitter love rivals after Stacey fled the square.
But suddenly Lily starts repeating the awful things Stacey said about Ruby – leading them back to square one.

Later in the week, Stacey and Ruby clash as Ruby threatens that she could have Stacey out of the Square at the click of a finger whilst Stacey is upset that Ruby is trying to take her kids away from her.
Whilst on her way to the club to give Ruby a piece of her mind, Stacey is attacked by a hooded figure and left lying on the floor.
Meanwhile, Ellie Nixon agrees to meet Phil Mitchell (Steve McFadden) at The Arches, following her sick scam which conned him out of thousands that he thought would help his son’s medical treatment.
Phil confronts her about her lies, but his son Ben reminds him that if they are going to try to get Phil custody of Raymond they must do it properly, through the courts.
Meanwhile, Habiba Ahmed is furious that Ash Kaur is not going to court to support Jags Panesar, not realising Ash feels too guilty
Habiba is devastated and fuming at the rest of the Panesa’s for turning on Jags, she cannot stand them anymore and wants Ash out of the house for good.
