Maria challenges Sally. When Sally agrees to lend her support to a new housing development outlined for the Red Rec if elected, having been promised first refusal on the show home, Maria is incensed. As Sally prepares for her election question & answers session, Maria steams in and tells her she is withdrawing her support and going to run for council herself leaving Sally to be completely horrified.
Adam's old flame burns Sarah's new friendship. Sarah meets up with Lydia & her son, Finn, and introduces them to Adam. Lydia pales and alluding to the fact that she had a relationship with him at university, makes her excuses and leaves. Under Sarah's steely gaze, Adam admits his relationship with Lydia was years ago and he can't really remember much about it. Sarah is unimpressed.

Elsewhere, Audrey arrives in a neck brace having had another car accident but still in denial about her eyesight.
