Nancy gives Darren until the end of the day to show his face or else he'll be dead to her. Darren can't get to his phone at the hotel. Celeste is questioned by Toby about her change in behaviour. Olivia wants Prince to look for a different job. Ethan checks in on Darren in his hotel room, but has to leave when a woman, Maya, pesters him on his mobile. Once alone, Darren manages to free a hand and tries phoning Nancy, but his phone dies before he can. Ste struggles to design a website for the cleaning business, and needs transport for the hotel job. Sienna has an idea. Toby's distressed by Celeste's update. Celeste wants Toby to go about his life as usual to avoid suspicion, and intends to confront Nate herself.
Nancy hasn't collected a donkey prop for the school's Nativity, so Olivia crafts one for her and impresses Sally. Celeste confronts Nate over his interest in Lisa. She's unnerved when Nate hypothesises what happened to Lisa and concludes she's dead and Celeste helped move the body. Nancy fails to collect Charlie from his football trial. Darren attempts to contact Nancy via the hotel's telephone but is caught once again by Ethan, who has a gun this time. Zara and Cindy clash over being environmentally friendly for Christmas. Celeste explains to Toby that Nate's hooked on that she was involved in the cover-up of Lisa's murder. She proposes they sit tight and wait for Felix to return from his honeymoon before doing anything else.
Nate fills Lexi in on Lisa, but Lexi reminds him why he's really there, and wants focus to be rediverted to the real job in hand. Zara and Cindy are delighted when Luke remembers a memory from long ago that Zara mentions. Nancy takes Darren's clothes over to Luke and offers him them before throwing them out; Luke notices Darren's favourite t-shirt and claims he must be being held against his free will as he wouldn't leave without it. Sienna surprises Ste with a work van for them, although it needs work done on it to make it practical again. Luke phones Suzanne to see if she's heard from Darren, but she hasn't. He can't understand where Darren is and is determined to find him. Ethan writes an off-putting text to Nancy on Darren's phone before preparing to deal with Darren once and for all.Cast
