Elsewhere the police arrive and inform Lucas and Chelsea that they have found a body and Denise's phone in the canal, and that he needs someone to formally identify the body. Patrick can't do it as he's not kin so it has to be Lucas. Later, Chelsea offers to go with him and he gratefully accepts. At the last minute, Chelsea backs out so Lucas goes in alone and identifies the body as being Denise's, leaving Chelsea inconsolable.

Later in the week the police reveal their suspicion that Denise had help in murdering Owen, forcing Lucas to ponder his next move.

Meanwhile Syed continues to wrestle with his feelings for Christian while still wanting to please his parents. It all becomes too much and Syed finally declares that he is gay but will Christian agree to give their relationship another go?
