Determined not to give up, even though there's no hope, he lashes out at Lola's granddad Billy Mitchell and his partner Honey Mitchell, accusing everyone of giving up on her.

Not able to deal with Ben freaking out, Lola's husband Jay Brown confronts him over his behaviour, but it only riles Ben even more. 

It takes some wise words from Ben's dad Phil Mitchell about his own struggles with him mum Peggy Mitchell's cancer to snap Ben out of his mood.

Feeling guilty for adding to the familly's woes, Ben visits Lola to apologise for how he's been behaving.

Although it seems he's finally  come to terms with Lola dying, there's still a part of him that can't accept it. He calls Dr Washington and asks for her help in making sure Lola will live for at least another few months.
