James looks at a photograph of himself and Marnie, taken in France in 2001. Damon receives a notification from his gambling app. Ethan listens to Darren's voicemail. He remembers putting Maya in the back of the Deadly Sheen van, parked in a warehouse. Ollie meets Becky at the police station, who reveals that she was released as the explosion was caused by a gas leak. She wants to go to the memorial. Darren barges into the flat, demanding to know where Maya is. Ethan is vague, but assures him that he is safe from her. Romeo and James are cold towards Becky; James is infuriated that she only received a fine and Romeo threatens Becky.
Liberty thinks that The Love Boat should be the new hangout now that The Hutch and Salon de Thé de Marnie are no longer. Damon worries when he card is declined. Ollie leaves to see Romeo, so James barges into 65 Christleton Terrace and threatens Becky. Leela tells Sienna that the van has been stolen, but it also hasn't been insured as the direct debit bounced. She vows to get the van back. James recalls that when on holiday, Marnie would flip a coin to decide who chooses what to do. James flips a coin - heads and Becky walks free, tails and he gets his revenge. He flips the coin, which lands on tails.
Damon tells Scott about his gambling. He advises him to be honest with Liberty. Becky tells Ollie, Ste and Romeo about James, but Ste and Romeo don't believe him. Becky worries when she is confronted by social worker Hannah over her arrest. Verity confronts Shaq over ignoring her messages. Misbah wants Shaq to start living and ask Verity out on a date.
Liberty decides that she is going to dress up as the Statue of Liberty. Liberty thinks that they should go on holiday to New York, and he backs out of telling her the truth. Hannah tells Becky that they are taking no action, but she needs to co-operate with the system. Ethan bursts into tears whilst preparing to bury Maya's body. Sienna realises that she left her watch in the van - she can track her watch and find the van.Cast
