Plot[]

Part One[]

Under a frozen lake, a hand frantically bangs against the ice trying to break through...

On a cold morning, the limos arrive in the village and Suzy and Leyla are horrified to learn that they have only ordered the limos and no drivers. Aaron is about to talk to Cain about Caleb but is interrupted by Caleb, Ruby and Steph. Steph discovers Cain has been released by the police without charge but makes it clear that she still thinks he had something to do with Anthony's disappearance. Aaron reveals to Caleb that he has got rid of Anthony's tooth and Caleb reminds Aaron of his threat to involve him with the police should be mention anything to Cain. Charity is concerned as Noah has been out all night but Mackenzie informs her that Sarah saw him at the Hide yesterday and he left to meet some other friends. Charity reveals to Mackenzie she has offered their services as limo drivers in return for two dozen bottles of left over champagne from a posh wedding. Moira wants assurance from Cain that he was not involved with Anthony's disappearance and he sticks to his cover story with her. She encourages him to go on the lads' night out later. Ruby is concerned over Steph's persistence in getting to the bottom of Anthony's disappearance and asks Caleb to go on the lads' night so she can talk to her alone. Leyla feels guilty about going on the night out without making things up with Jacob and is forced to leave him a voicemail as Suzy encourages her to come along. Paddy, Liam, Matty, Bear, Sam, Vinny, Caleb and Cain arrive for the lads' night out in tuxedos - as part of their Bond theme night - with Mackenzie being their chauffeur. Amy, Kerry, Chas, Vanessa, Tracy and Mandy arrive for the ladies with Charity driving them. Mandy is forced to walk Vinny back home when he arrives too drunk to go and tells Charity not to leave without her. Mackenzie jumps at the chance of passing the keys over to Caleb when he offers to drive instead. Charity refuses to move out of the way until Mandy gets back, preventing the lads' limo from setting off. Cain tells Caleb to keep his act together and things will work out fine for them with the police.

Part Two[]

The celebrations get underway in the limos as both parties wait to set off. Liam laments not seeing his idea through to propose to Chas and decides to do it anyway. He joins Chas in the ladies' limo as Mandy arrives back and Paddy pulls Mandy into the lads' limo in Liam's place, allowing both parties to set off with the women's limo going in one direction and the mens' in the other. Liam bottles it when in the limo with the rest of the women. Mandy makes herself at home in the mens' limo as they discuss Liam's intentions to propose to Chas. As the celebrations continue, Liam tries to get the girls' attention but they quickly shout him down. Conversation in the mens' limo turns to Cain's arrest and 'Dingle loyalty'. Caleb chimes in and asks if loyalty is so important to the Dingles then why did Cain sleep with Ruby. Liam makes his way over to Chas and is just about to propose when he is interrupted by the limo swerving. Charity apologises believing she almost hit a fox. Cain is unable to deny Caleb's accusation this time but manages to make Caleb more angry when he insists that him and Ruby sleeping together meant nothing. In his frustration, Caleb puts his foot down making the limo go faster as he continues driving. The rest of the ladies look on realising what Liam is about to do. As Caleb continues to rage at Cain, he takes his eyes off the road, causing the limo to swerve. As the rest of the men try to get Caleb to slow down or pull over, Liam proposes to Chas in the ladies' limo, just as the two limos separately swerve to avoid things in the road and one of them ends up stuck in a frozen lake.
