Meanwhile Sway is still trying to explain to Qasim what happened. He tells his friend how he felt faint, his head was thumping and then he realised; he had doubts.

Just then a couple of thugs approach them and start laughing at Sway’s outfit. When Sway retaliates the thugs start hurling racist abuse about Muslims.

He dashes back to the flat and hurriedly throws some clothes into a bag. Qasim tries to persuade him to ring Nadia but Sway won’t, what could he say to her?
