Plot[edit | edit source]
Maria Townsend pulls away from her kiss with Claudia and decides to leave, believing that she has made a mistake. Back in Ashwood, Faye Carter feels guilty for cheating on Maria. After much deliberation, Faye decides to stay with Maria, and watches solemnly as Wes Carter drives away. Maria returns shortly afterwards, and she and Faye embrace. Meanwhile, Sam Dawson struggles to come to terms with Carl Dawson's sexuality, and while Carl is reassured by a surprisingly accepting Jeremy Dawson, Reinette Acharya takes it upon herself to encourage Sam to accept Carl for who he is. Sam admits that he isn't bothered by Carl's sexuality, but more by the fact that he and Carl have so little in common. Sam touches on the reason behind Carl's mum leaving, and it is revealed that Sam had an affair with Reinette when she and Terry first became an item, but it ended when Reinette became pregnant with Leila. Carl's mum left upon finding out that Sam had been cheating on her, but he never told Carl this. Reinette and Sam almost kiss, but Reinette resists and walks out. Elsewhere, Omera Bhaduri opens up to Desiree Johnson about how Jeremy cheated on his now deceased wife (Sam's mum) with Omera's mum, but called off the affair when his wife became ill, devastating Omera's mother and thus beginning the rivalry between the families. Danny Walker confronts Hakeem Bhaduri about threatening Carl, but when it becomes clear that Hakeem was forced into it, and not wanting to cause anymore trouble, Danny agrees not to tell Carl.
