Annie goes to school in a bad mood, forbidden to see her father. Nick goes to Taylor's house to tell him what he witnessed, but Taylor simply doesn't care about his situation - he's just given up. Miss Dyson knows from the swipe card records who ruined Emma's art project - Annie. Annie goes home after lunch, and although her father is pleased to see her, she is told she can't stay, because Social Services will blame him for her absence from school. Baz sees some camcorder footage that Martin has taken and spots Annie walking out the gates. He heads home too, and the old argument ensues - that of Mr. Wainwright not taking his pills. Shannon and Hudson seem to be getting close again, but he is shocked that she is considering to simply work in her grandmother's shop after school ends. Nick tells Mrs Bassinger about Mr. Green's attack, admits to trying to take an exam paper from the office, and is told that he might be barred from taking any further exams. Annie returns, and Miss Dyson lies in wait, but is sympathetic to Annie's woes: Annie must fix up Emma's damaged art project. After school, Baz and Annie's dad is waiting. In the car, Baz tries to persuade his father that he must take his pills.
