Dean returned to Walford to be nearer to his daughter Jade Green, who was having a lung transplant relating to her cystic fibrosis diagnosis.
Following the surgery, Jade (Elizabeth Green) came to stay with her dad in Albert Square, but in recent weeks, she was planning to move to Pakistan to be with her mum, Shabnam Masood.
In a bid to stop her going, Dean started tampering with Jade's medication, making his own daughter so ill that she had to go back onto oxygen.
He then tampered with her oxygen supply during her charity fundraiser, leading to her collapse.

Shabnam had called her with the news, and revealed she had booked her onto a flight which was leaving the next day.
