Ollie returns home and slumps on the floor in the backyard, ignoring a call from Becky. Maxine arrives at Dee Valley Law, only to find James asleep on the floor. Honour overhears Lizzie and Serena discussing Dave's secret. James arrives at 65 Christleton Terrace to check on Ollie and apologise. Becky walks in and explodes at James, who flees. Lizzie stops Serena from telling Honour about what they saw, wanting to confront Dave first. Becky thinks that James needs to be taught a lesson, and asks Ollie for a favour. James is furious to learn that Marnie left him a few belongings, but left Donna-Marie a significant sum of money. She tells him to not bother showing up to the vigil.
Cindy finds a letter from Mandy - she has left Hollyoaks! Lizzie, Serena and Sam watch Dave and Maxine from afar. Serena runs over and confronts them. Damon wins on his gambling app. He tells Liberty that he wants to buy himself, her and Faith a nice house after they return from New York. Ollie tells Ste about James, but says that James gave him the drugs. Serena doesn't believe Dave when he claims that Maxine was a friendly customer, and Lizzie says that she is young enough to be his daughter. Maxine corrects her by revealing that she is Dave's daughter.
Sally cries on Tony's shoulder over Marnie's death. Tony invites the Chen-Williamses to The Dog in the Pond upon learning of their plans to go to Liverpool for Lunar New Year. Cindy is frustrated by Luke's reaction to Mandy leaving for Los Angeles with DJ. Zara and Cindy have to break the news to Ella. Serena and Sam are furious with Dave for raising them to be truthful but lying himself, despite his explanation about Trish cutting him off and having to think about his 'new' family. They are hurt to discover that Honour already knew. An angry James arrives at the vigil at the Jubilee Gardens, so Ste shouts at him about the drugs from the City Wall. Scott gives Damon an idea after mentioning that the gambling companies can afford payouts as the house always wins.
James tells Ste that he is feeling smothered, and then confronts Becky after spotting her. Zara tries to comfort Luke over DJ leaving. Scott is worried as he learn that Damon is splashing his cash. Serena and Sam confront Honour. Serena can't forgive Honour. Maxine is also furious with Dave over his refusal to tell the truth. She tells him that she has survived without Mitzeee and Trish before and can survive without Dave too. Becky tells Ollie not to feel sorry for James, unaware that James has planted the stolen donation money in Henry's pram. Damon tells Scott of his plans to hire The Loft for a casino night.Cast
