Plot[]
Part One: Jude lands an interview for a place on the paramedics course. At Brian's suggestion, Kevin has Greg Kennedy call in at the holiday club to give a talk to the children. The residents lap up Ken's story, which concerns two young women getting up to no good in the 1960s. Sinead doesn't tell Daniel about the cancer so as not to spoil his first day at university. Yasmeen tells Mary that Jude faints at the sight of blood. Claudia discourages Audrey from reading Ken's story. Jude returns with the news that he passed the interview. Angie is delirious at the news. Bessie Street School is flooded. Brian moves the holiday club to Jamila House, refusing to let the kids down. Mary takes a call from the university on Jude's phone and finds out that he walked out of his maths exam. She lets Jude know that his secret is out.
Part Two: Jude admits that he couldn't face telling Angie about his failure and begs Mary to keep it between them, using George as emotional blackmail. Mary is disgusted by his constant lies but is unsure whether to stand by him. At the holiday club, Jack is befriended by Lila Harries and starts to enjoy himself, despite Brian's boring science experiments. Lewis reads Ken's story aloud in the salon. Audrey doesn't like what she hears and chucks the paper in the bin before he's finished. Gemma is down in the dumps after hearing that Henry has married Cressida. She declares that her next boyfriend will be kind and caring. Lila admits to Jack that Brian asked her to sit next to him. He's upset at being treated like a sad case. Cathy threatens to bang their heads together if Chesney doesn't ask Gemma out. Ken harangues Sinead over her failure to tell Daniel about the cancer. They're interrupted by Daniel as Sinead cries over the situation. Daniel demands to know what Ken said to upset her.
