Ged Paxton was a friend of Archie Carpenter who pretended to be an old acquaintance of Warren Fox to steal money from Elliot Bevan and Zak Ramsey. Archie, Elliot and Zak had discovered £100,000 belonging to Warren and split it among themselves, but Archie planned to trick the others so he and Ged could get the money. After Archie realised Ged had planned to steal the money for himself, Ged held him hostage on the college roof, threatening to throw him off unless he got the money. Ged got the money but Elliot and Zak still discovered Archie's deceit.
