2601: Dom agrees to help Steph decorate

Ste's barely able to function through lack of sleep and working all day really starts to take its toll. Abi's angry when she visits Ste and sees the state he's in - she knows Daniel has gone against what they'd agreed by continuing to drug him. Natty becomes suspicious after Ste tells him about prank calls he's been receiving through the night, as the exact same thing happened to him when he became a dad. Daniel's riled when Natty admits to him that he thinks it's too much of a coincidence and quickly warns Abi that Natty is a threat to them.

Whilst on her own with Zoe, Abi 'accidently' lets slip that Natty has a past and although at first she's not worried, Zoe becomes distant with Natty, wary about exactly what he's done. Ste, meanwhile, is struggling to cope in work, especially when Dominic leaves early and Cindy won't give him a minute. Despite telling her that he doesn't feel too well, Cindy keeps loading Ste with jobs until he suddenly throws up in front of customers. Unable to take anymore, Ste walks out but not before Cindy sacks him.

In attempt to cheer Ste up, Natty decides to head round to the flat with a few beers but just as he gets there, Daniel arrives and tells him to leave. Natty's confused by the sudden change in Daniel and is shocked when Daniel tells Natty he'll reveal his past if he doesn't walk away.

Meanwhile, Sasha's still reeling after Warren's death. She's lonely, depressed and stays up all night drinking. The reality of having no income really begins to hit home for Calvin and with no food in the house, he's desperate for cash. Leo suggests asking Spencer for rent but before Calvin can, Ravi arrives. He's unaware that Ash wasn't mugged and once Calvin and Spencer fill him in on what happened, he's furious with his brother.

Spencer realises that Calvin is desperately short of cash and so, feeling very grown up, he heads to the cash machine and withdraws a wad of notes. Ravi later turns up at the Valentines' with Spencer who he finds walking home with a load of shopping. Calvin's embarrassed but grateful when Spencer hands him some rent money - he doesn't want to take it but knows he has to.

The lads all head out for a game of football and Sasha even manages to crack a smile on seeing her dad in his kit. Knowing he can't help his sister, Calvin looks on. Despite not wanting her to leave, Spencer gives Sasha the money to go and visit Josh in Manchester. Sasha's delighted.

Elsewhere, Steph's worried about dishonouring Max's memory by decorating the flat. In a quandary about what to do, she bumps into Dominic at Il Gnosh and the pair start chatting. She admits how she's feeling, knowing he's one of the only people who can understand what she's going through. He tells her that Max can still be remembered in other ways and that he'd want her to be happy.

Sensing she needs a friend, Dominic decides to help Steph decorate, much to the annoyance of Cindy and Ste who are busy working. Back at the flat, a glum Steph is soon cheered up when Dominic starts a water gun fight with her.
