It’s Mother’s Day in Walford, and Cindy is excited about celebrating with Gina, Anna and Peter together for the first time.
However, at The Vic, George is struggling to cope, having been informed that no DNA matches have been found for him and there’s no trace of his birth family.
Elaine and Cindy insist that the time has come for George to tell the girls the truth about his heritage before they head to Jamaica, and he reluctantly agrees. Gina and Anna are horrified when George shares his story and are furious to discover the truth about Eddie and the trial. Gloria rings the pub after being coerced by Eddie into begging George to give a defence statement in court.
George is in turmoil as he mulls over Eddie’s ultimatum, leaving Elaine and the Knight girls desperately worried for him. Elaine asks Johnny to talk through the legal implications of giving the statement to help George make his mind up, but he’s still conflicted.
After a heart-to-heart with Linda, George decides to trust his gut and heads to court where Gloria is distracted by the arrival of a mysterious woman. George arrives at the court and takes the stand.
Later, Elaine is worried sick about George following the trial. Cindy joins forces with Elaine to try to make George calm down, for the girls’ sake but the arrival of a visitor at The Vic changes everything.
What happens next remains to be seen, but when George goes missing, Elaine and the girls frantically look for him.
