Newt (Nico Mirallegro) decides to test the limits of the Osbornes' patience and revs up the volume of his stereo. But he is mortified when his birthday turns into a kid's party, and he erupts and hurls a spiteful tirade at his new family. A fretful Amy (Ashley Slanina-Davies) tells Ste (Kieron Richardson) that she hates their bed and breakfast accommodation. Determined to extract Amy from Ste's claws, Michaela (Hollie-Jay Bowes) brags about the comforts she will enjoy when she gets home, but Amy's determined not to be swayed. Nancy (Jessica Fox) has packed off Jake (Kevin Sacre) so that she can concentrate on her university projects. But their lodger Russ (Stuart Manning) is also home and the two soon find themselves distracting each other. Nancy laps it up as Russ suggestively wonders what Jake would think to see them now. Steph (Carley Stenson) tells Max (Matt Littler) she overheard Tom (Ellis Hollins) say he hated her, and later admits to Frankie (Helen Pearson) about the lack of progress in her mission to win the youngster over.
