Whitney Dean has discovered Gray Atkins' lies about his work in EastEnders.
Viewers will know that Gray has been moonlighting in a restaurant because he hasn't told his partner Chelsea Fox – or anyone else in his life – that he's been fired from the firm.
Gray infuriated Chelsea this week by secretly moving in, though he managed to win her back round with an engagement ring.

Yet, the serial killer remained desperate for cash so he hit up brother-in-law Keegan Butcher-Baker to pay back a past loan in full immediately because he's getting married.
Whitney previously found out that Gray wasn't working at the law firm anymore, so she decided to figure out exactly what he'd been up to in Thursday's episode (November 18).
Gray first dodged her request for back-wages with promises she'd get them by next week. When Whitney shared her suspicions with Tiffany, her surrogate sister urged her to be sure before making any allegations.
Whitney then manufactured a crisis to call Gray, telling him she'd need to drop by his office for the keys to bring Mack a new pair of pants at school.
As a panicked Gray insisted she couldn't come by the office, Whitney could overhear Gray's boss at the burger restaurant telling him to get back to work.
Later, Whitney joined Chelsea in bringing the kids home from school, but was intercepted by Gray before she could share her suspicions.
"Wherever you're going when you say you're at the office, you need to stop lying," Whitney insisted.

Gray lied that Laura at his firm trumped up his sacking, then claimed he'd been doing for-hire admin jobs around Walford to make ends meet.
Whitney called out the lies, but Gray stopped her when she went to tell Chelsea the truth. Gray insisted he was interviewing with new firms and just needed more time to put his life back together.
Half of Gray's secret has been discovered – will Whitney decide to expose the full picture before his fancy wedding on Christmas Day?
EastEnders airs on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays on BBC One.
