5278: Xavier weaves a new web of lies

Xavier is devastated that Miranda has discovered he's actually in high school. Xavier tells her that if they got on great when she only knew half of him, they can only get on better when she knows the real him. Xavier seems genuine in his plea and so Miranda agrees to go on one date with him. Later, Xavier is about to finish his delivery shift for the night and head to his date when Angelo springs a last minute order for him. Eager not to stuff up his second chance with Miranda, Xavier turns up on her doorstep and explains he has to push back their date until later. Miranda agrees to wait but when Xavier comes back to the scooter, the pizzas have been stolen.

Soon afterwards, Xavier orders another five pizzas from another place so he doesn't get into trouble for leaving the order unattended. But when he loses the keys to the scooter, he has no choice but to ask Miranda for a lift. Miranda reluctantly agrees to bail him out, and proceeds to witness him lying to the customer to explain the five pizzas that aren't from Angelo's. When she sees Xavier lie to Angelo about what happened to the scooter Miranda admits she's had enough - all she sees in Xavier is a little kid who lies to everyone.

Meanwhile, after her false labour pains, Nicole has started to worry about how she'll feel when Marilyn takes the baby away. Nicole wishes there would be someone at the birth that was only there for her and thinks of Roo as the obvious person for the job. However, knowing Marilyn wouldn't like it, Roo declines the offer. Nicole talks to Marilyn about it, who also thinks it's a bad idea.

Later, Morag encourages Nicole to fight for what she wants. With this advice in mind, Nicole heads over to see Marilyn but is bamboozled by the amount of baby stuff Marilyn has bought in preparation. Overwhelmed, Nicole explains to Angelo that seeing all the preparation made her realise that she would like to keep her baby.

Elsewhere, Romeo goes into business but his first day is a dud.
