4859: Irene succumbs to temptation

Struggling with prison life and thinking about what happened to Lou and how the kids are coping without her, Irene is unable to sleep, and knowing there's a full bottle of gin in her cell only adds to the former alcoholic's nightmare. Unable to cope any longer, Irene begins to tip the alcohol down the sink but soon stops herself. With half a bottle left, Irene screws the top back on and hides it back under her pillow.

The next morning, Irene approaches the cellmate of a prisoner who previously offered to sell her the alcohol while out in the yard. Irene tries to give the bottle back but it's too dangerous to do so under the glare of the guards and she's forced to take it back to her cell with her.

When taking an afternoon nap, Irene is taunted by images from her ill-fated boat trip with Lou and wakes up in a state of panic. Unable to resist the temptation any longer, Irene unscrews the cap of the bottle of gin and takes a drink.

Later, after emptying the bottle, Irene returns to her cell only to find it being searched by prison guards. Will they find the empty bottle of gin?

Hugo agrees to be interviewed by Angelo and Charlie about the shark attack in order to keep his boat and business afloat. Following a tense interview, Angelo asks Hugo to take him out to the spot where he was attacked. Against his better judgement, Hugo reluctantly agrees.

Alf warns Hugo not to tell Martha about the boat trip with Angelo for fear of how she'll react. Not wanting to upset her, Hugo agrees. However, Xavier accidentally lets slip to Martha that Hugo is taking Angelo out on his boat that evening.

Martha races to find Hugo and begs him not to take Angelo out on the boat, as he can't be trusted. Hugo tries to reassure Martha, but she won't take no for an answer. Telling Hugo that she feels it's a mistake, Martha pleads with him to abandon the trip. Will Hugo go through with the trip or will he listen to Martha's concerns?
