Lauren Branning's return to Albert Square has been anything but easy. Upon arriving, she was immediately arrested for drug smuggling at the hands of her cousin Penny. Now, Peter Beale's knowledge of Penny's secret has come to light, leaving a bitter taste in Lauren's mouth. Yet, that's not all that's about to unfold.
