Nasreen rejects Aaron when he turns up and during Science, Hayley gets eyebrow pencil on her face when she tries to reapply her make up as Jordan offers for his family to pay half of Jamie's christening to Candice. Simone receives a visit from a loan shark, Linda, demanding money to repay the debt of Simone's ex-boyfriend Craig and Kevin refuses to contribute to Jamie's christening. Jordan is threatened by Candice's brothers for the money towards the christening when he cannot pay their half, so Cory and Jordan steal Alpacas and attempt to sell them to a butcher. Razia struggling with the revelation of Iqbal having two families impacts on her homework and Missy has to work on a burger van to repay Simone's ex-boyfriend's debt and when Emma finds out, she suggests to Mandy that they organise a school play for the students to change their opinion of Mandy due to her actions. Kevin is called into school when they find out about the Alpacas and update him on Jordan's progress, which infuriates Kevin, especially when he fails to secure a job, and a row between Kevin and Jordan results in Kevin beating up Jordan. Missy decides to return to school when Mandy tells her about the play, Rashid informs Kaneez of Razia's struggles and Claire, the mother of Steve's son, Zac, turns up at school with him. Missy is unimpressed when Simone reconciles with her ex-boyfriend and Steve finds out about Jordan's beating from Cory after Jordan attacks Will after PE and Cory and Jordan choose to report Kevin. Mandy and Steve start to reconcile and Rashid puts forward to Kaneez the suggestion that Razia has dyspraxia, unintentionally angering Kaneez, and Jordan backs out of reporting Kevin.
