==Plot==
Zak tries to dissuade Belle from pleading guilty, but she won't budge. Betty, David, Alicia and Kerry gather for Bernice's market research event. Jacob feels guilty when he witnesses David and Alicia arguing over the missing stock in the shop. Debbie explains to PC Swirling what happened at the roadside with Alastair. She becomes emotional when he hints that he thinks she overreacted to the situation. Edna tells Harriet that she's definitely binning the scratchcard but looks thoughtful. Diane catches Priya throwing her lunch away. She makes an excuse but asks her not to tell Rishi. Bernice's market research event is ruined when Val drunkenly lets slip about Jacob stealing from the shop. Debbie is released on bail and rings Pete to pick her up. She's touched to discover he's already waiting for her outside. Jacob expresses his dislike for Val when they confront him over stealing from the shop. He blames her for David getting involved with Priya after sending Alicia to prison. Eric works out that he is the internet troll and Val's horrified. Debbie explains to Pete what happened with Alastair. Zak tells Lisa that Belle's planning to plead guilty. Jacob apologises to Val. Diane force-feeds Priya chips and threatens to tell Rishi about her lunch if she doesn't eat them. Pete visits Alastair in hospital and threatens him to drop the charges. Leyla's suspicious when Priya disappears to the toilets after eating Diane's chips. Harriet begins rifling through bins in the village to find Edna's scratchcard. Debbie kisses Pete when she finds out that he's been to the hospital to get Alastair to drop the charges.
