6321: Kate tries to thwart Rhys's plan

With a plan to distract Erin by romancing her, Rhys sets up for their first date. Knowing she'll be guarded, Rhys manipulates the situation to bring her home with him - with the intention to make her miss an important class the next morning. Although his plan appears to fail, Rhys is delighted when Erin's lateness earns her an official warning.

Seeing Erin's vulnerability, Rhys feigns concern and presents himself as a source of comfort. When Erin accepts, Rhys gloats to Kate, but this only serves to fire her up. Determined to make Rhys pay, Kate tells Erin that Rhys is only using her. Has Kate ruined Rhys's chances of getting what he wants?

Elsewhere, seeing the Kennedy house is still riddled with touches of Susan, Paul challenges Karl to make a change. Karl resolves to make the place his own by upgrading the entertainment system - maybe it will fill the void in his life.
