Will ups the ante with his manipulation on tonight's Fair City, drawing Hughie in as his family becomes further and further out of reach.
Hughie, who struggled with alcohol addiction over the years, sees Will needs help and advises him to attend an AA meeting with him.
Hosting the AA meeting, Hughie welcomes Will in and asks him to take a seat.
Unable to speak at first but then deciding to, Will shares a story that led him to alcohol addiction.
Explaining that his life was complicated from the start, with the last few years being hell, Will admits to his daughters' suffering because of him.
Blaming himself for the fact that she can't love him anymore, Will exits the meeting overcome by emotion.
Later in the Hungry Pig, Phoebe chooses to leave rather than stay in the same place as him. Confronted with a bill of €20,000 to sort asbestos in the house he's trying to sell, Will tells Hughie about his problem.
Coming back at closing time holding the Alcoholics Anonymous book he gave him, Will confides in Hughie that he might have saved his life.
Touched, Hughie offers to lend him the money, telling him 'everyone deserves a break'.
Fair City airs tonight on RTE One at 8pm.
