Scott and Theresa wake Maxine, finding "slag" written on her head. Imran looks at his reflection in a pot pan lid. Tony is furious when Imran burns the soup. Grace ignores Cindy as Cindy talks about Joseph's imprisonment. Maxine has a flashback to the night before and remembers a man standing over her. She decides to go into hospital in case she was spiked and raped, and Theresa decides to go with her. Tony is impressed when Imran refuses to go home in favour of doing his job. Grace, appreciative of Cindy's support, tries to assure her that she's fine. Cindy and Zara try to come up with a way to help Grace.
Darren learns from Brooke that Nancy doesn't think that he will compete in the duatholon. Misbah informs Maxine that her drugs and sexual assault tests returned clear. Theresa mentions Eric and Maxine has another flashback: she tells Misbah and Theresa that Eric has been targeting her. Zain asks Imran to take Misbah Salsa dancing. Imran forces himself to eat a spoonful of soup at Tony's request. Maxine explodes at Eric in front of Verity. She demands that he confesses, or she goes to the police.
Grace is furious when she sees Cindy's party, but changes her tune when Zara talks about moving forward from Luke's death. Eric lies that he tries to help Maxine and Verity defends him. Maxine refuses to apologise to Eric, so Verity fires her. Romeo offers to help Darren train for the duatholon, but charges £50 per session. Darren injures himself whilst weightlifting in an attempt to prove himself to Romeo.
Misbah points out that Imran does not look well, so he explodes at her. Grace invites Zara to move into the spare room if she wishes. Imran ignores Romeo's advice to take things easy whilst working out. Maxine confronts Eric and he drops his innocent act. On his computer, he pulls an article about a spiking in The Chester Herald and asks the forum members as to how to get away with it.Cast
