MONEY runs low for certain Albert Square residents, forcing them to make drastic decisions.
After Stacey Slater, Keanu Taylor turns to dodgy dealings to make ends meet and gets involved with EastEnders' Ravi Gulati.
The hunk portrayed by Danny Walters feels helpless next week when he realises he can't afford to pay for Albie's christening.
BBC One viewers will remember that Albie – who was previously named Kayden – was the result of Keanu's affair with Sharon Watts, born on February 14, 2020.
Faced with Keanu's money worries, Mitch Baker (played by Roger Griffiths) gives him his best advice – he needs to get a few more jobs.
Keanu sets out to find himself an extra form of income but when Alfie Moon and Phil Mitchell both turn him down, he begins to question Zack Hudson (James Farrar) about another one of Walford's thugs – Ravi Gulati.

This still didn't stop him from killing the man who raised him as his own son, Ranveer Gulati, who had tried to rape Suki Panesar.
Ravi got away with the crime as Kheerat Panesar took the blame for him and Suki.
As a result, Ravi continues to roam free and stays at the helm of Walford East.

But when Keanu asks to know more about him, aside from their shared connection to Chelsea Fox, Zack warns him that he shouldn't get involved with the underworld Ravi operates in.
Cash-strapped Keanu, on the other, doesn't see a problem and is lured in by the prospect of big money.
Ravi agrees to give him a trial run by taking a shady delivery the following day.
