David is desperate to get high. David returns from his run out of breath. Gail worries he’s pushing himself too hard but when a furious David hears that Shona is being taken to visit her son Clayton in prison he heads out on another run. David approaches some youths on bikes and purposely shoves one of them over and then stamps on the bike. David sprints away as the youths give chase.
Meanwhile, James struggles with locker room banter. Ray visits The Baileys house and reveals he has fired Don. James returns to training as Michael assures him that the family is right behind him whatever he decides. In the changing room, one of the players makes a dig at James’ sexuality. James makes a joke out of it and the other players laugh with him. James is quietly pleased.
Elsewhere, Gemma shows Chesney her vlog but makes it clear she’s no intention of putting it online after her humiliating turnstile experience.
