2608: Wade ends his relationship with Lauren
Ash is furious by Ravi's decision not to fight anymore. Under pressure from the fight organisers, Ash calls Ravi a coward for listening to Kris. Ravi can't explain that his brain aneurysm is the real reason he won't fight, but keen to win back his brother's praise, Ravi agrees to carry on training.

When Kris sees the brothers training together, he intervenes and almost tells Ash about Ravi's condition. Ravi panics and punches Kris. Afterwards, Ravi feels awful and goes to apologise.

At the SU Bar, Ravi attempts to talk Ravi out of training, but Ravi explains that he needs his brother's approval. At home, Ravi tells Ash that he wants to fight. Ash is relieved but when he finds Kris in the SU Bar, he warns him to stay away from Ravi. Exasperated, Kris knows there's only one way to stop him from fighting…

The lads are tired of having to be careful with their money. Archie and Zak want more, but Kris and Elliot argue for due care and attention. When Hayley arrives and asks them to help her move into halls, no-one wants to leave the money unattended, so they reluctantly agree to go together. Hayley senses Zak is hiding something and under pressure, he eventually confesses to her about the stash.

Hayley tries to convince Zak to split the cash with her but Zak refuses, so she steals his keys and pretending to go out for ale, makes her way to the lads' flat to look for the money. Zak soon realises what's happened and darts home to stop her. However, while he's there, Hayley manages to convince him to take the cash. He goes to get the money, only to find that it's missing!

When Archie and Elliot arrive home, Archie fires accusations at Zak - until Elliot reveals that he's put the money in a safe that he bought with his £250. For it to be opened, everyone must be present. Zak starts to rue his missed opportunity…

Lauren feels neglected by Wade following their passionate evening. She goes to Anita for advice and she tells her friend to see Wade once more in order to find out what he wants. When Lauren meets up with Wade, he explains that he thought the previous night was just a one-off. She's clearly hurt by his presumption, but agrees to keep seeing him.

They go to Relish together, but the age difference takes its toll - Lauren's jealous of Ricky and Anita's 'fun' relationship. Wade eventually realises that Lauren's not over Newt and he calls things off, much to Lauren's relief…

Anita's excited when Ricky tells her he has a surprise for her but she's quickly disappointed to learn Ricky's the new paper boy. Sensing her disappointment, he pretends he had another treat lined up. Her faith restored, she goes to meet him at the skate park where he wows her with a new trick. Anita's impressed, but if the truth be known, she expected a better surprise.

Afterwards they go to Relish, where Anita can't help laughing at Ricky's daft made-up stories. She feels let down again, though, when Ricky leaves her to pick up the bill. Afterwards, Anita wants to go to Ricky's house, something that he's clearly not keen on. He deflects her with another joke and Anita's quickly won over by his charm…
