'The Lion and The Lamb'
Heston spots Daniel packing and doesn’t understand why Lily never mentioned it to him. Lily makes it clear to Heston that she doesn’t want him moving in now Daniel has gone.

Daniel is on cloud nine as he arrives in his flash car to pick up the keys to his new luxurious apartment. Julia asks how he can afford a new car, apartment and suit. He lies and tells her he has paid off some debts early.

An unimpressed Karen gives a note to Zara with Daniels new address on it, and Julia reprimands Karen, Zara and Daniel for their unprofessional manner.

Later Zara turns up at Daniels flat and they sleep togther. She gets bored though when he starts talking about Izzie so she gets up and leaves.

Daniel chases after her but she humiliates him, saying it was just something they had to get out of the way before they could work together.

Meanwhile, Lenny Aston (39) returns home from his job as a club bouncer and wakes his daughter Jade Aston (16). Jade goes to the bathroom and Lenny starts to tidy her bedroom and is furious when he finds a man’s shoe under the bed. He confronts her about it and is further horrified to find out she is having sex and has been prescribed the contraceptive pill.

He drags Jade to the Mill determined to have it out with the doctor who gave her the pill. He gets aggressive and leaves when Julia threatens to call the police.

Lenny turns up at the factory Jade works at with his side kick Carl Andrews (26). Lenny plans on finding the ‘sicko’ who is having his way with his daughter. They try out the shoe for size on a couple of the male workers. Carl tries to reason with Lenny and seeing his hands are causing him pain Carl urges Lenny to get them seen to.

Lenny is shocked to see Jade sitting alone in the canteen, but Carl tells him its because the men are too scared of Lenny to talk to her. Lenny sees that Carl is wearing trainers and thinks he’s the man Jade is sleeping with and throws a punch at him but hits the car instead.

Lenny goes to see Heston about his hands. Heston says he probably has osteoarthritis, brought on early because of his boxing career. He tells Lenny if he hits anyone he risks doing irreparable damage to his hands so he’ll have to find another way of communicating his feelings.

Lenny returns home to find Jade has gone. He ends up back at the Mill and Heston helps Lenny see his problem with Jade is his inability to express himself.

Heston finds out where Jade is, and Lenny finds out Carl is not Jades boyfriend but he does love her. Jade reveals she is afraid of Lenny as well, and Lenny opens up to Jade about how he feels. When Carl arrives, he jumps on Jade’s boyfriend, but Lenny astounds them all by talking Carl into letting the boy go.
