EastEnders spoilers confirm the moment Mick Carter has been dreading arrives next week.
His past abuser Katy Lewis heads to Walford, following a bombshell that turned his world upside down.
Newcomer Frankie Lewis claimed to be Mick's daughter, before revealing her mother was his former care worker Katy.
When she realised that Mick was only 12 years old at the time of the romance though, Frankie realised it was sexual abuse and was mortified.
Mick was in denial about what really happened to him in care, as the BBC soap confirmed they were tackling a historic child sexual abuse plot with the character.

Mick has been struggling in the fallout, and has yet to fully open up about what happened to him - not even able to accept it himself.
Next week though, he comes face-to-face with his abuser Katy.
Mick is shocked when she arrives in Walford, and they see each other again for the first time since the abuse when he was a child.

He demands answers from her, wanting to know why she never told him about the pregnancy and Frankie being his child.
But he isn't prepared for what she has to say, when she makes her response.
What does she have to say, and will he be forced to confess all?

Later on, Tina Carter is stunned to see Mick and Katy talking - with her also being in Katy's care as a teenager.
She doesn't know what happened to Mick, and reminisces with her about their time in care.
They're soon interrupted though when Frankie messages her mother, demanding to see her and Mick together.
EastEnders airs Mondays at 8.05pm, Tuesdays and Thursdays at 7.35pm and Fridays at 8.35pm on BBC One.
