EastEnders spoilers follow.
EastEnders has released preview photos for Phil Mitchell's outburst at the Vic.
A new look at Tuesday's (July 12) episode reveals that Phil's meeting with crime boss Jonah turns violent when he throws one of the stools in the Vic at his rival. Phil's warning for Jonah to stay away from his family may ignite a war.
Phil has no idea at this stage that his sister Sam Mitchell has actually been working with Jonah in secret to take over the family business, even using his men to stage the robbery at Peggy's nightclub.
Monday's (July 11) episode saw most of the Mitchell family relishing in Phil's return from prison — though Sam was fuming because her plan to get Kat Slater to sign over control of the club was now on ice.
Phil announced he's now back in charge of the family business, before swearing Kat to secrecy over the plea deal he'd made to get out of prison.
What to Read Next
Kat wasn't willing to give Phil another chance, revealing she'd be staying at No.31 rather than living with the rest of the Mitchells.
When it looked like Phil had everything under control, DCI Keeble arranged a secret meeting with Phil where she warned him she expected full candour on all of his criminal ties.
Phil turned to Sharon for support now that Kat had left him, going so far as to suggest a reconciliation. However, Phil was enraged to see brother Grant calling Sharon after she'd reached out to him for help last week.
A furious Phil called things off with Sharon before they'd even started up again. He went back to Kat to spin a tale about how he only had to grass for the next six months, but he'd be bluffing the whole time.
Phil and Kat then reconciled, but how long can Phil stay ahead of Keeble and his own criminal ties?
EastEnders continues on Tuesday at 7.30pm on BBC One and streams on BBC iPlayer.
