=== Time in Hollyoaks ===
Vincent hides in a van with fellow illegal immigrants in a job organised by Trevor. Jacqui and Phoebe discover them. She decides to let them flee the scene. Phoebe later finds Vincent in the village and they catch up. He goes to rave at the local night club but Maxine collapses after having her drink spiked. Vincent helps to put her in the recovery position and impresses Phoebe. George becomes jealous and makes Vincent feel unwelcome. Vincent tells Phoebe that he wants to raise money for train fare to start a new life in Newcastle, but she appears to not want him to leave. Vincent manages to secure a job at College Coffee in exchange for cash in hand. Phoebe attempts to kiss Vincent but he rebuffs her advances.
Vincent returns to Hollyoaks, to Phoebe's happiness, but Vincent tells Phoebe that he is here to see George. Vincent tells George that he is in love with him and wants him to come to London with him. George is sceptical but decides to come, and leaves, bidding his farewell to Phoebe.
