FRIDAY 29TH OCTOBER

NINA AND ASHA FAIL TO GET IT IN THE BAG Sean offers to help Asha and Nina find Stu by introducing them to his friend Carol. She suggests that they go and speak to some of the homeless people by the riverbank but is furious when she sees them going through Stu’s belongings. As Asha and Nina head home they spot Stu, Nina bites the bullet and tells Stu they need his help.

ZEEDAN FEELS THE PRESSURE With Alya out of the way, Zeedan takes the opportunity to launder some of Hashim’s cash through the Speed Daal till. Hashim meets up with Zeedan in the ginnel and, handing him another bag of cash, tells him he’s got a month to push it through the books. Zeedan’s heart sinks.

CURTIS NEEDS CASH FOR ANSWERS In the salon flat, Curtis runs his hand through his hair and a clump falls out. When Curtis reveals that it’s another side effect of his illness, Emma is heartbroken for him. Emma confides in Steve how worried she is about Curtis’s condition and wonders if he’d lend her the money from Oliver’s fund to allow him to see a private consultant

FRIDAY 29TH OCTOBER

ASHA AND NINA BAG UP THE EVIDENCE Nina explains to Stu how Corey’s backpack could prove he killed Seb. But Stu’s adamant he doesn’t want to get involved and hurries away leaving the girls bitterly disappointed. Nina takes Asha’s hand and tells her she’s ready to give their relationship another go if she’s willing to have her back. Asha’s thrilled.

RYAN IS SUSPICIOUS OF ZEEDAN His equipment all wrecked from the night of the storm, a morose Ryan reckons his DJ career is over. When Alya offers him some shifts at Speed Daal, Ryan’s grateful. As Zeedan launders Hashim’s cash through the Speed Daal till, Alya remains oblivious. As Ryan heads to Speed Daal, he notices Zeedan involved in a heated exchange with Hashim. When Ryan questions him, Zeedan refuses to be drawn, leaving Ryan suspicious.

Steve gently explains that he can’t release Oliver’s funds for Curtis as people handed over their money in good faith and it would be illegal. Emma’s deflated.
