Thursday 5 November

Cindy is becoming increasingly fed up with Tony and the lack of attention he's been giving her. He, on the other hand, is completely absorbed in the planning of his veteran's day at Il Gnosh and totally oblivious to Cindy's mood, any complaints fall on deaf ears. As Tony reminds her how much it means to him to honour the memory of his great grandfather who fought for this country, Cindy just has money on her mind and takes the medals to be valued. As Tony and Dom arrive back home, Tony is aggrieved that after asking Cindy to prepare dinner for the kids, they're eating a greasy, unhealthy take away. Fed up of being chastised, Cindy lets Dom in on a secret - his great-grandfather was German.

Nancy is becoming concerned about Anita and Hannah's budding friendship. At school, she notices that Anita is wearing one of Hannah's bracelets that Nancy bought her but after she is confronted about where she got it, Anita tells Nancy that Hannah let her borrow it. Feeling guilty, Anita quickly finds Hannah and confesses that she stole the bracelet. Hannah is shocked but decides to go easy on her. When Nancy admits to Hannah that she finds her friendship with Anita slightly odd, Hannah becomes extremely defensive and admits to Nancy that Anita has an eating disorder. Nancy is put out that Anita didn't confide in her but Hannah is quick to point out to her the reasons why, giving Nancy food for thought. Hannah feels that if anyone can help Anita, it's her so in an effort to make her see the damage an eating disorder can cause, she bravely hands over her diary.

Things are awkward between Mercedes and Calvin after their kiss the night before. Preparing for Bonfire Night at The Loft, they purposely try to avoid each other where possible. When Mercedes feels like Calvin is deliberately being unfair on Malachy, she decides to confront him but an argument quickly ensues and the tension mounts between the pair. In an attempt to diffuse the situation, Mercedes apologises to Calvin but his cool attitude quickly riles her again and the apology descends into another fight. As things heat up, it looks like Mercedes and Calvin are actually fighting their attraction but before they can give in, Malachy's arrival quickly cools the situation down.

The students are in good spirits as they prepare a guy for Bonfire Night at The Loft. The arrival of Spencer at Halls puts a dampener on things for Dave as, although he knows it's harsh, he doesn't want him tagging along with them. Knowing his brother's being strung along, Josh tells Hayley to end it with Rhys after he sees them having a laugh together. Rhys is furious when he overhears this but is left gutted when Hayley dumps him for the second time. Meanwhile, a lonely Spencer is fed up of being left out. He gets chatting to India but Dave soon comes and drags her away. Left to his own devices, Spencer wanders off but when Sasha sees him with lit fireworks in his hand, she screams for him to stop. Everyone can only watch in horror as the firework in Spencer's hand explodes.
