Lynda confronts Prash on his arranging a transfer deal for Luis with Johnny Rizzanella behind her back. Prash reminds her having secured Fletch and written off debt for the club, maybe she should consider this was the best option for Luis. Fletch rubs Didier's nose in it by turning up in his Lamborghini smooching with Victoria. Lynda is left red-faced when Prash explains the release clause in Luis's contract, and how he can just leave anyway if the club goes down. With Everton away next, Billy wants to stay in Liverpool longer so he can attend his mate's 21st, but Ray refuses him.

 

At councilling, Lisa asks Scott to close his eyes and recall his most vivid childhood memory. Scott describes his eighth birthday and the party he had, listing his family present. Lisa asks him about the dad he doesn't mention, and Scott closes up. Ann questions Victoria about her relationships with Didier and Fletch, and the adverse story it could create if it got out. Victoria makes it clear Ann can't call the shots with her, and throws in how she has messed with the head of the club's leading striker. When Fletch hears of Billy's friend's party, he encourages Billy to play well and then shoot off.

 

Roger discusses how players like Baptiste and Fletcher both have the same clause if the club is relegated, and Prash adds a first division club wouldn't be able to attract players of their calibre. Lynda believes the answer is the club staying up then. Scott has opened up to Lisa about his father, who left when he was seven and hasn't seen him since. Scott admits to Lisa that he does want to see his dad though. Prash sees Luis in the gents where he drips poison that as soon as Harchester are relegated it will be even harder for him to leave. Victoria claims to Didier nothing happened between her and Fletch, while it is her husband she wants and knows he still feels the same. Soon Didier and Victoria are making out in the lift.

 

Lynda makes it clear to Luis having been told what to do by men all her life, and being seen as the trophy wife, she won't take it in her new life. When Lynda adds the club is all she's got, Luis reminds her she has him, and doesn't understand how they've reached here after getting everything they wanted. Scott asks Ray if he can miss travelling to the Everton game due to the intensity of his last session with Lisa. Lynda tells Luis he can go to Marseille, and that there's nothing stopping him. They can still see each other lots while she stays with the club. Luis tells her he doesn't want France or Spain anymore, he wants to go home... to Argentina.
