Amy has rekindled her relationship with former drug dealer Jacob, and is keen to spend time with him. But her parents keep thwarting her plans and the couple's attempt at a date fails. Finally, Amy decides it's time to reintroduce her boyfriend to parents Steve and Tracy McDonald (Simon Gregson and Kate Ford). How will they react?

Remember Nicky, the former sex worker who had a brief relationship with Daniel before leaving to start a new life? Now she's back, but Daniel's new girlfriend, devious Daisy, is not happy - even less so when her beau tells her that Nicky has applied for a job at the school where he is teaching. Nicky insists that she doesn't want her past revealed, asking Daniel not to tell his other half.
