Episode Guide

George told Deek he was the one who sought out Mac. Deek told him he couldn't trust any of his family anymore and wanted to be left alone. Later, Deek went to see Bob and asked if he could stay with him. Scarlett told Billy she was glad that they would be working together. He knew nothing about it, and told Heather he didn't appreciate not being consulted. However, Heather put him in his place and told him that she was the boss. Callum moved into the flat with Ruth and Scott, but was a bit put off when Ruth seemed less than welcoming. However, Scott was keen for Callum to stay, and told him not to worry. Bob overheard Stevie asking the girl gang if they wanted any 'gear'. When Bob asked Stevie about it, he said that he was talking about cut price fags. Bob wanted to believe him, but wasn't sure.

Callum invited Eileen to see his new flat. He was surprised to find that she wasn't happy that he'd moved in with Ruth and Scott. Eileen explained that she wasn't comfortable being in Ruth's flat. However, when Ruth walked in on them getting cosy on the couch, Eileen wasn't too embarrassed to head off to Callum's room with the bottle of champagne she'd brought round as a housewarming gift. Ruth was not happy that her new flatmate's girlfriend was her Aunty Eileen, and bitched to Scott about it. Bob found Michelle sleeping in the portable building. He brought her some cushions to make her more comfortable, and was concerned to find that she was in pain. Malcolm told Eileen and Gina he wanted to sort out the feud between Jo and Ruth but didn't know what to do.

Gina decided things had gone far enough, and went to see Ruth. She explained how much distress Ruth's Grandpa was in, and what she was doing to the family. An obviously upset Ruth became more and more tearful and eventually broke down, saying that she regretted all the trouble she'd caused, especially to Gina. Gina was delighted that she'd finally got through to Ruth. However, Gina was stunned when Ruth qualified her apology by saying she knew she was right about Franco, and he'd be better off with Ruth. Gina couldn't take any more, and walked out. When Ruth looked to Scott for support, he told her he could no longer apologise for her, and their friendship was over. As she left the flat, Gina prepared to phone social services to make a complaint against Ruth.
