### Full Plot

At the bus stop, Thomas comes up to Ellie. He asks her about her morning and the two chat about their lessons that day. They are shortly afterwards joined by Frankie.
At Amira's, Ayesha and Bilal unload stock from the back of Bilal's car. Bilal sends Ayesha to fetch their son Mohammed and ask him to carry some heavy sacks inside. Ayesha goes upstairs where Bilal's mother, Noor informs her that Mohammed has gone out to the newsagents.
Ayesha goes next door to Suni (her sister) and Khan's house. She knocks on the door and can hear shouting. Suni opens the door and Ayesha asks for her husband to help with some heavy lifting. Suni calls for Khan and he initially yells back but changes his tone when he realises that Ayesha is at the door.
At the Chippy, Jenny enters the kitchen and asks Jason if he's been to the wholesalers. Jason says he hasn't and Jenny initially scolds him but is quickly embarrassed when it transpires that she had the business's bank card all along.
Back at the Bilal's flat, Ayesha is sitting at the kitchen table when she hears shouting from next door again. Noor enters and remarks that 'her sister' is going at it again. The two discuss Suni and Khan's recent marital troubles. Ayesha mentions how Suni has had bruises on her arms and says that they need to do something. Noor talks about how it is not their responsibility to interfere with another person's marriage. Ayesha angrily walks out, saying that it is not the 1800s anymore.
Later that day, Thomas, Ellie and Frankie arrive home on the bus. Ellie goes off, while Thomas and Frankie stop and chat by the pub. Thomas invites Frankie to a hangout that they are planning on Friday. Thomas leaves and Frankie enters the pub via the kitchen and smiles to himself.
At the Khan's, Khan throws Suni to the floor and shouts at her for her actions. He throws a plate at her, which smashes. She accidentally cuts her hands on the smashed porcelain. From the hallway, Hari and Aliyah watch in terror. Khan orders them to go to their beds. They freeze and he throws another plate. Suni is enraged and orders him to leave. She attacks him and pushes him into the hallway. She throws him out the door and down the front steps. This attracts the attention of Ayesha, who is working in the takeaway, who calls her family from the kitchen. Mohammed and Bilal rush into the front and watch in shock.
As Khan walks away, the Khan children stand scared behind their mother. Bilal and his family watch in shock from the takeaway. Noor watches from an upstairs window. Suni begins to break down as the episode ends.
