Mick is in prison after last week's events and already feels isolated from his life on the outside. Desperate to speak to Johnny and wish him a happy birthday, Mick speaks to a fearsome fellow prisoner called Fraser, having heard that he can supply a burner phone. Fraser demands a favour in return for helping and Mick agrees, but he's soon horrified by the consequences of getting involved with such a dangerous character and ends up fearing for his life.
Elsewhere, Hunter cooks lunch for Mel and Ray at the restaurant, wanting to keep the peace as they're arguing. When Ray bails on the meal, a disappointed Hunter lies to Mel and blames himself for the no-show.
Meanwhile, Bex breaks down over Shakil when her head of sixth form visits to discuss university options. Also today, Keanu cleans Charlie's cab for some extra cash, but after an argument with Kat, he finally swallows his pride and takes up Sharon on her offer over Phil's car.
Later in the week, a strange encounter fuels Hunter's suspicions over Ray. When Hunter does some digging, he makes a discovery.
Also, Sonia apologises to Bex, who decides to speak to the head of the sixth form again.
