Josh attempts to do the right thing and Jim has something on his mind
Ben finds Josh cleaning out his car, as Ben’s friends have left it in a state again. Ben tells him not to bother, they’ll only mess it up again. Ben returns later to find Josh has sold the car to pay Rex back. Settling up with Rex is more important to him than Ben’s social life.
Jim seems in good spirits and explains to Alistair that he’s hoping to stay with Fiona soon and meet her partner, Angie. It’s bothering him that he never heard back from Michael, though. Alistair reminds him that Michael isn’t Jim’s responsibility.
At dawn Robert helps Lynda sneak back onto her deckchair outside The B. Lilian explains she’d noticed Lynda’s padlock looking worse for wear. Lilian fastens a new one on and pockets the key, then shows her some photos she’d taken in the middle of the night of Lynda – at least, she thinks it was Lynda… Robert confirms to Lynda that the game’s up. Lynda relents and agrees to cancel her interview with the Echo. Lynda asks Lilian to remove her padlock. She agrees to end her protest as long as Lilian deletes her incriminating photographs. Lilian threatens to expose to the other ReBulls that Lynda is a fraud. Lynda concedes defeat and decides to step down as their leader on the condition that Jolene deletes her back up photos.
