Tony receives a card from "the love of [his] life" with a bouquet of flowers, wanting to meet him The Hutch tomorrow. He is confused as to who the sender is. Sid overhears that Juliet has recruited Ella. Cher demands to know from Goldie what Sylver has done. Mercedes bumps into George, and tries to threaten him into getting the evidence on Sylver deleted. George refuses, and Mercedes shouts after him that he'll never be accepted into the family. Juliet explodes at a disgusted Sid. She points out that he recruited Charlie. He demands that she gives him the drugs. Tony starts receiving messages from the unknown person. Tony thinks it might be Ruth, to Darren's amusement. Darren jokes that it may be Theresa now that she has returned. Tony jokes that it may be Mandy, and Darren says that it may be Sinead. Darren is confident that the messages are from Diane, but she storms in and throws the divorce papers at Tony.
Mercedes and Cher are relieved when Sylver is released. Sylver decides to tell Cher the truth. Theresa bumps into Joel, and is amused to see that he is a priest. Goldie is uncomfortable during their awkward exchange. Theresa insults Joel for getting with Cleo, and insults Goldie when she corrects her to say that Joel is now with her. Theresa thinks that she has another chance with Joel, but he is adamant on being with Goldie. James delightfully informs George that Sylver has been released. George gets angry when James continues to wind him up over the lack of evidence he had over Sylver. George tells James that he plans to tell the McQueens that he removed the evidence. John Paul and Mercedes have a blazing row. Cher is horrified to learn that Sylver killed his mother. She thinks that he has passed his anger onto her. She says that he has no idea what she has done. Under pressure from Sylver to confide in him, she blurts out that she has also killed someone.
Tom and Tony talk about the messages. Tony says that Diane is the love of his life, wilst Tom says that Yazz was his. Cher says that when her sister was born, it was like she stopped existing. Cher tells Sylver of a moment she spent with her mum where she felt wanted, but a jealous Liza ruined the moment by showing off a dance routine. She remembers Liza sitting on the edge of the pool whilst their mum was distracted by a man at the bar. In a fit of rage, Cher pushed her into the water. Liza was unable to swim and, despite Cher's best efforts to save her, Liza drowned. Cher says that Sylver didn't pass on his anger as he killed Breda to save people. Tony tells the secret admirer that he won't be at The Hutch but they refuse to take no for an answer.
Sally is horrified to learn of the blackmail. George falsely tells John Paul that he sabotaged the evidence due to pressure from Mercedes. John Paul is horrified, and is furious with him and Mercedes. George is angry that John Paul isn't grateful, but John Paul ends up apologising. Tom tells Yazz of his plan to go to France to see Harley. Yazz says that she has a surprise for him, that he will not want to miss. She is upset to learn that his flight leaves tomorrow. Sid has sold the drugs. He is furious to learn that Juliet has told Victor about his reaction to Ella being recruited. Sylver promises to say nothing about her confession. The doll proposes a new game: guess their identity, and the blackmail is off. Guess wrong, and the consequences will be severe.Cast
