Plot[]
Part One: Leanne leaves to deliver the drugs, telling Simon she's meeting Nick. Kelly is free to go having refused to give the name of the dealer to the police, protecting Simon. She goes with Billy rather than return to her foster home. Dev forbids Asha from seeing Kelly again. Asha reveals that she was the one who told Kelly to buy the pills, explaining that she wanted to forget who she was for a few hours. Dev doesn't accept the excuse. Ed apologises to Michael for not being more enthusiastic about the gender reveal party and insists that he and Aggie will foot the bill. Jenny annoys Fiz by suggesting that Tyrone is keeping his options open by not marrying her. Nick realises that Leanne used him as an alibi when he finds out she told Simon she with him. Leanne is disgusted with herself as she makes the delivery.
Part Two: The punter tries to keep Leanne there until he's checked the goods but he releases her when she threatens to call Harvey. Abi tells Sally that she doesn't want her - or anyone - to be her maid of honour as she only wants a simple wedding. Sally is saddened when her friend admits that she doesn't feel she deserves a grand affair. She encourages her to celebrate whichever way makes her happy. Abi follows her advice by asking Sally to perform the ceremony instead of a registrar. Sally agrees. Kelly is unhappy that she has to go back to her foster home and is interested to hear that Imran and Toyah are foster parents. Nick asks Leanne what she's up to. She tells him about Simon wrecking Jacob's bike and makes out that the money was to settle up with the lad. Ronnie answers his phone and tells the caller to stop pestering him. Fiz catches Tyrone looking at beauty treatments on his laptop. He makes out he was planning to treat her and the girls. Leanne tells Nick that she got the rest of the money from Stella and everything is fine now. Kelly hopes that Imran and Toyah will foster her and assures Asha that she has no need to feel guilty. Leanne orders Simon to quit his job at the chippy as she wants him to cut all ties with Harvey. Harvey calls Leanne to inform her that he's lined up her next drop.
