After the pair spend the night in an abandoned house, Lexi (Sally Oliver) reveals to Chas (Lucy Pargeter) that she spent two years in a Mexican prison for smuggling drugs. Agreeing to keep it quiet, Chas takes Lexi back to the Dingles for breakfast, only to be confronted by Colin's wife (Judy Holt). They're in for a further shock when she hands them some cash to repay them for killing her husband! Later as they celebrate, Eli (Joseph Gilgun) spots Lexi's self-inflicted tattoo and guesses that she's been in prison. When he immediately tries to blackmail her, Lexi's furious and accuses Chas of blabbing. Is Lexi's secret about to come crashing out into the open?Meanwhile, Marlon (Mark Charnock) and Donna (Verity Rushworth) are rudely awaken by Eli, demanding to use the toilet. When Marlon voices his annoyance at the constant interruptions, Eli suggests they cut him his own key. Unhappy with the idea, Marlon is frustrated when Donna agrees in exchange for rent. Later Eli admits to Marlon that he has no money but once again threatens to expose his secret if Marlon throws him out. Will Marlon be held to ransom by his errant brother once more?

Elsewhere, Paul (Mathew Bose) visits Perdy (Georgia Slowe) and is confused to see a grave in the garden.

He is further puzzled when Perdy denies digging it even when Gray (Christopher Villiers) notices her muddy shoes by the back door.

Quick to offer support to Gray, Paul stands Jonny (Richard Grieve) up who had cooked him a special dinner. Could there be three people in their relationship?
