Plot[]
Part One: The teenagers are still struggling to process what has just happened. Andy turns the body over and discovers they've hit Miss Strickland. A tired Bernice congratulates Louise on a job well done at the pub. She worries about Nicola's pregnancy. The teens start blaming each other for what they have done. Eve has to calm Katie as she becomes hysterical. Viv and Bob cause a scene by drunkenly getting affectionate in the pub. Cain tries to wind Len up. Andy suggests the teens call the police. They hide behind a wall as a car drives by. Viv and Bob agree to buy another bottle of champagne before returning home. The teens take shelter in a barn as they plan their next move. Robert points out that Andy and Marc will come off worst if they go to the police - Andy for stealing the car; Marc for driving it. He believes they can get away with it as nobody has seen them and suggests they just go home and stay quiet. Eve suggests burning the car to cover any evidence. One by one, the group come round to the idea. Ollie realises they have half an hour before the Woolpack closes and their families return home. Cain returns home and worries that someone is on to his counterfeit money scam when he discovers an envelope with a torn-up note in his pocket. The teens set fire to the car in a field and run away as it explodes.
Part Two: Andy, now back at Melby Farm with Robert and Katie, gives Katie the money to cover taxi fare as she returns home. He promises Katie that things will get easier. Robert advises Katie to say she has been at Melby Farm all night. After she's gone, Andy cries to Robert that things won't get easier. Eve has gone home to wash her clothes. She turns up to see Marc and encourages him to do the same to get rid of any evidence. Donna tries to calm Ollie as she is still in shock. Ollie begs Donna to let her stay with her but Donna has to force her out the backdoor as Viv and Bob arrive home. Donna runs upstairs and gets into bed, pretending to be asleep as Viv and Bob pop their head around her bedroom door to check on her. Eve consoles Marc and they kiss. Robert has asked Andy to stay in his room for the night as he tries to come to terms with how they will move forward. They talk about Sarah and Robert admits he can't help hating Andy for what he did. Ollie returns to Holdgate Farm and is appalled when she walks in on Marc and Eve in bed together. Eve decides to go home and encourages Marc to talk to Ollie. Marc struggles to deal with his guilt and ponders confessing to Angie. Ollie feels they have missed their chance to come clean and warns him to stay quiet. He begs Ollie not to hate him and sobs in her arms.
