Plot
Ken fears Peter will drink himself to death in prison and considers informing the prison governor. Tracy warns him that Peter will be blamed for grassing if he does. Peter suffers from withdrawal. Leanne starts at the kebab shop. Michelle warns Tracy that the wedding venues she likes are out of their price range but Tracy orders her to make it possible. Sophie tells Maddie there's a packing job going at the factory. Maddie agrees to ask Carla about it but it's clear she isn't keen. Steve and Lloyd are puzzled when Street Cars receives fake call-outs and a load of pizzas they didn't order. Neil casually lets them know he's behind it. Ken visits Peter in prison. On hearing how difficult Peter is finding it going cold turkey, Ken offers to speak to the prison governor about the booze but not to say where it comes from. Peter says he'll sort it himself. Sophie forces Maddie to ask Carla about the packing job, only for Maddie to walk away when Carla asks her about her experience. Nick thanks Eva for being a good friend. Eva and Kal discuss Leanne's suspicions about Nick's relapse, with both of them convinced it's genuine. Jim is furious when Peter says Leanne knew he'd been drinking. Neil pesters Andrea with texts. Steve suggests Lloyd play Neil at his own game. Ken decides not to shop Peter. Jim tells Peter he doesn't trust him and cuts him off. Peter pleads with him, saying he'll do anything for more booze. Leanne warns Nick about manipulating Eva.
