==Plot==
Part One:
As Sam and Mandy load scrap wood into the back of the Dingle van for the village bonfire, Mandy asks Sam if he's responsible for the trouble Tom has encountered recently. Sam protests his innocence. Jimmy suggests he and Nicola take Angelica to the village bonfire. As Tom isn't planning on going, Nicola agrees. Ross takes pleasure in telling Mack about his heart-to-heart with Charity yesterday and comments they still have a connection. Ella moves out of Tenant House although she's still insistent about taking the job at the doctor's surgery much to Liam's displeasure. Mack returns to Jacobs Fold and confronts Charity about what happened with Ross yesterday. Charity admits Ross kissed her but assures Mack she set him straight. Mack is furious. At the Hide, Aaron spots Victoria's keyring featuring a photo of Robert and Seb which leads him to reminisce about the time he had everything - Robert, Liv, and their own little family. He comments he and Victoria could've raised Seb but Victoria insists the last thing Seb needs after losing Rebecca and Robert is to be passed between houses. John overhears Aaron and Victoria's conversation. Afterward, he asks Victoria what they were talking about but Victoria encourages him to ask Aaron instead. Charity informs Ross that she told Mack he kissed her. She reminds Ross she's his only ally in the village and warns him not to come between her and Mack again. After walking off, Ross encounters Jade and her heavies on the Hotten Road bridge. Victoria asks John how much he heard of her and Aaron's conversation earlier as it's clearly rattled him. John admits he didn't realise how serious Aaron and Robert's relationship was. As Jade's heavies hold Ross over the edge of the bridge, Ross insists he's not up for a rematch with Billy but he's forced to agree when Jade threatens Moses and Charity.
Part Two:
Villagers gather on the cricket pitch for the bonfire, including Tom and Amelia as Tom refuses to hide at home and let the Dingles intimidate him. Bob apologises to Angelica for his reaction the other day then hands her and Jimmy hot dogs as a peace offering. As Aaron places the Guy on the bonfire, Tom is furious to realises the Guy resembles him. Billy is alarmed to return home to find Jade talking with Dawn. When Dawn leaves the room to tend to Evan, Jade orders Billy to fight Ross again. Billy is adamant he can't fight again but Jade gives him no other option. Charity and Mack agree their relationship is unbreakable and the pair kiss. Billy visits Ross at Butlers Farm and questions why he agreed to a rematch. Ross states he had no choice. They've got to fight one more match to repay Jade and orders Billy not to screw things up. At the bonfire, a worked-up Tom demands to know was responsible was for the Guy stunt. All the Dingles jokingly claim responsibility which infuriates Tom even more and he takes his anger out on Amelia. He blames her for meddling and making things worse then asks if she knows how pathetic she looks. Jimmy witnesses Tom's tirade. Is he beginning to have doubts about his nephew's innocence?
