Aaron Monroe gets a sinister warning from Neil in Tuesday's special hour-long episode of EastEnders (7:30 pm. see our TV Guide for full listings).
Aaron Monroe insists on going to work despite Harvey Monroe encouraging him to keep a low profile. It's not long before Aaron is faced with the sinsister Neil, who shows him a distrubing video. Aaron is shocked when Neil agressively threatens him for being a grass, throwing him against a wall.
Harvey turns up and tells Neil to get out but Neil hits back that he'd better watch out as he'll go after Harvey's daughter Dana Monroe. Aaron is furious with Neil's threats against his sister.
After the threats, a terrified Harvey phones Dana and tells her to come straight home. Meanwhile, Aaron reveals he has a plan to keep the racist gang off their backs. He says he's going to convince them that Neil has lost it.
As the hours tick by, Harvey worries that Aaron has put himself in danger. When he finally gets back he reveals that he convinced the gang to get rid of Neil but there's a catch... They have insisted that Aaron take over the operation in Manchester.
With Aaron's bombshell news rocking him to the core, Harvey begs Aaron not to go to Manchester. But his son insists there's no other way to keep the family safe. As Aaron heads off, he lies to Dana that he's off to Manchester for work. Will she believe him?

Meanwhile, Rocky Cant is at the gym when he and Sonia Fowler notice a desperate looking Dotty. She pleads with Nancy Carter to give her a job at the gym but Nancy disappoints her.
Rocky can't get Dotty off his mind and after finding her at Ruby's he offers to help her out with what little money he has. She's downbeat to realise that it's not going to be enough to get her somewhere to live. When Zack Hudson finds Dotty with a sleeping bag at the club, he advises her to swallow her pride and asks Sonia for help.
Unable to throw herself on Sonia's mercy and with nowhere to go and no money to help her, Dotty ends up sleeping rough in the allotments. She later finds Vinny and asks him to help her find a place to stay. He's taken aback when her request comes with the veiled suggestion that she'll date him if he helps her out.
Unsure whether Dotty is on the level, a confused Vinny explains to Karen Taylor about a 'girl' who has asked him out. Not knowing it's a self serving Dotty, Karen encourages him to go for it!
Vinny falls for Dotty's words and he tells her that he'll pay for her bedsit, inviting her out for a romantic meal.
