This week the show is looking at love triangles, generally not one of my favourite subjects but I can’t help but admire the head on approach that Dominic Mitchell takes in this episode. PDS Sufferer Freddie Preston firmly believes in his marriage vow ‘to death do us part’, but unfortunately his wife, Haley, moved on and is happily living with her new partner, Amir. Needing somewhere to stay after coming out of the treatment centre she reluctantly allowed Freddie to stay in the spare bedroom for a few weeks; but now it’s four months later and he still shows no signs of giving up on her, or finding elsewhere to live, much to Amir's growing agitation.
Jem is having trouble coping with shooting of school mate Henry, and wants to hand herself over to the authorities. Gary has other plans though, he covers things up as best he can, only to find out that Jem has gone behind his back and spoken to Maxine. Both are surprised, however, that she doesn't react to the news as expected. Gary finds himself drawn even deeper into her secret plans, and grows much closer to Jem as he wants help with what is to come.
