Lauren is pushed to breaking point when she discovers that two people she trusted have stabbed her in the back. Will she manage to stay strong or turn to drink?

Joey agrees to have coffee with Lauren but insists they should take things slowly. Lauren spends the day at a loose end after arranging to go to R&R with Lucy and Whitney that evening. Kirsty reassures Lauren when she worries she鈥檚 boring without alcohol. Lucy and Whitney stick to soft drinks in solidarity with Lauren and the girls have fun. But, at R&R, Lauren insists her friends drink alcohol. Joey鈥檚 not happy about this and Whitney realises he鈥檚 scared she鈥檒l tell Lauren they slept together. When Lauren returns from phoning Max the truth comes out. Lauren walks out, claiming she鈥檚 fine. Sharon won鈥檛 let Joey follow. Outside Lauren breaks down and takes a sip of vodka, then spits it out.

Sadie鈥檚 not happy when Sam reveals the salon needs re-wiring. At Joey鈥檚 suggestion, she sets up a pop up salon in R&R. Sadie鈥檚 caterer falls through, Ian pitches for the job and makes sample canap茅s; when Sadie won鈥檛 commit, Ian attempts to charge her. Denise鈥檚 furious when she overhears Sadie booking another caterer. Sadie鈥檚 new caterer lets her down and she offers Ian the job; Denise鈥檚 bemused when he accepts.

Michael taunts Danny, the difference between them is that he has his own business; Janine doesn鈥檛 have the whip hand. Danny later tells Janine he鈥檚 found a way they can make Michael鈥檚 life difficult.

Max crows to Carl that Kirsty鈥檚 moved back in. Impressed by Joey鈥檚 salon idea, Sharon lets him manage R&R for the night. Joey finds drugs in the club and realises Carl鈥檚 dealing. Upset after Lauren leaves, Joey confronts Carl who in return makes threats about Alice.
