Betty and Alan attempt to convince Seth to leave the house, and he reluctantly agrees. Tricia attempts to apologise to Kathy for setting her up with Mike, but Kathy becomes enraged and urges Tricia not to attempt to help her in the future. Ollie calls in ill to escape Mel and Julie at school, and Robert intends to accompany her on her skive. Paddy and Jason dispute about Jason's intrusion, and Paddy informs Jason that he wishes to be left alone. Robert pays a visit to Sarah. When he discusses his GCSE alternatives with her, Sarah says she'll call the school and they can speak with someone about it. Seth informs Alan that he was mugged by two girls and informs Alan that he does not wish to stand in court and tell everyone what occurred; he wishes to retain what little pride he has remaining. Jason seeks assistance from the Dingles in dealing with Paddy. Zak and Cain first oppose the proposal, but Zak finally comes around and agrees to speak with Paddy on the condition that he refrains from speaking negatively about the Dingle family in the future. Zak wishes to forget over their altercation the other day, and Paddy apologises as well. Zak convinces Paddy to visit The Woolpack, but it's all too much for Paddy, and he runs out. Sarah and Robert have gone to school to discuss Robert's possibilities with Bev Mansfield; he has decided to pursue Art instead. Bev inquires about Robert and Andy's home situation; Sarah informs her that she would appreciate any help with the boys. Chris asks Marlon to prepare a romantic meal for two tomorrow night at Home Farm. Bernice informs Kathy that she is in need of a project to get her teeth into. Robert requests that Sarah not inform Jack about his decision to change his GSCE options. Ollie informs Seth that she is aware of the girls who mugged him, but Seth does not want her to inform others.
