Earlier in the week, Phil Mitchell (Steve McFadden) agrees to do some digging on George's past for the boxer's suspicious future step-daughter Linda Carter (Kellie Bright).
As the week progresses, we can see that Phil starts delving into George’s past before we finally reach the Thursday's explosive instalment. What has Phil uncovered?
Fans have already seen that the iconic Walford hardman has already forged a friendship with George but will what is revealed cause this to change?
Speculation is already rife that the mysterious Rose Knight is actually the iconic EastEnders character Cindy Beale.
It was revealed last month that actress Michelle Collins would be returning to the BBC One soap despite her character Cindy having been killed off-screen in prison 25 years ago.
Could Cindy Beale have survived and begun a new life abroad as Rose Knight, becoming the mother to three children with George, including daughters Gina (Francesca Henry) and Anna (Molly Rainford)?
If this does turn out to be true, then perhaps this episode will be the one to reintroduce Cindy and also her first husband Ian Beale (Adam Woodyatt) who is also set to return to the soap.
Woodyatt was last seen on-screen for a surprise cameo at Dot Branning's funeral in December when he watched events from afar before taking a call from someone he referred to as "Love" and heading home to them.
Whatever happens, Albert Square looks set to face a heap load of drama.
