S03E02: Steph is given an ultimatum

A fight club is in full swing at the school, with Bolton Smilie and Paul Langley at the centre, as the drama continues. Jasmine suspects Paul is being abused and raises her concerns with Steph, who dismisses her because she is too involved with the musical and getting Matt's attention.

Jasmine shares her worries with Eddie and her suspicions are confirmed when he finds Paul following a beating. Eddie rounds up the usual suspects and gets the boys to confess. Paul, meanwhile, wants to toughen up so that he can stand up to his violent Uncle Dermott. He steals a knife and heads off home to confront him. Jack and Eddie decide to take the matter into their own hands and race after Paul to try to stop him.

Elsewhere, Tom is worried that Chlo's head is so full of being a wife that she's not going to pass her mock exams, and asks Steph to give her extra French tuition. Chlo isn't happy with the idea, but is delighted when Brett offers to help. It's soon clear there is more than French on the timetable when an unexpected chemistry develops between the pair.

Steph is in trouble when her lack of attention to Paul and Karla is exposed, and a furious Eddie makes his feelings known to Jack, who gives Steph an ultimatum: shape up or ship out.

Meanwhile, auditions for the musical are taking place and Aleesha and Danielle tell Karla she has a great voice and should audition.
