Roxy (Rita Simons) decides that it's time to move out of the Queen Vic in the coming days following some wise words of advice from best friend Christian Clarke. However, she is given fresh hope when a lonely Alfie (Shane Richie) tells her that he doesn't want her to leave.
The pair share a moment as they chat at the antiques emporium before Alfie suggests that they should meet for a curry later, which will allow them to "be lonely together".

Roxy is excited about spending more time with Alfie and won't listen when a sceptical Christian warns that the pub boss doesn't love her. Instead, Roxy insists that there is definitely something between them.
At the same time, however, Alfie has been arguing with Kat over the phone and Jean intervenes by letting Alfie know that his wife misses him terribly.
Realising that Kat needs him, Alfie decides to put his partner first and heads off to visit her - while a snubbed Roxy is left waiting alone at the Argee Bhajee. Will she realise that Christian was right all along?
