Emma, Jason Confession time Brand Moody back in business Better publicity than Michelle could've expected

GS: Emma Collison (Anya Lahiri) Gareth (James Marchant) Michelle Campbell (Christine Adams) Councillor (Jane Slavin) After Harchester suffer an embarrassing draw to Reading, Sully proudly watches as the team tear each other apart. When Amy and Jimmy feel trapped on what can be done re Dragonslayer, Liam advises a new motto of playing Dragonslayer at their own game, and Jimmy tells the Unvincible trio that they will talk openly about their gambling at a press conference. Jimmy tells them they will do it as they owe it to the fans, as well as themselves. After they make their admissions, Sully and Amy allow Gavin back to theirs so he can face Cindi, who is distraught that this will destroy Brand Moody and nobody will want to touch them now. Jason is worried when Katy says she saw him with Emma at the club, and she adds that it's time Jimmy knew Jason was a part of the gambling. After Liam and Amy meet with Gareth, Sully logs onto Harchester.net and finds his access as Dragonslayer denied. A message is posted saying all negative postings are off-limits until the end of the season as the Dragons need the support of their fans. Danny makes an anonymous call to the sports desk and tips them off about how the website is censoring their fans at the request of the club. Gareth finds the media camped outside his house, and they yell questions until he’s forced back inside. Jason tells Jimmy his story, which results in Jimmy sending him to the same gamblers' support meeting the others are attending. The press aren't letting the Dragonslayer story go, and with up to ten other sites offering to host Dragonslayer, Jimmy asks Danny to join Gareth on a radio phone-in for damage limitation. This is an absolute disaster, with Gareth being pressurised into revealing how Harchester United approached him about taking away Dragonslayer's account. With the fans now even more disillusioned with the club’s actions, Amy states reinstating Dragonslayer is the only way, which Jimmy has to agree with. Miguel tells Jason he will see Emma off for him, intent on telling her he doesn't believe she has any evidence to support her blackmail of Jason. But soon enough they fall into bed together, and Miguel makes a deal with Emma that if he pays off her debts she in return will keep quiet about sleeping with Jason, plus get the chance to be Miguel’s on-show girlfriend. Hours before they are due to leave for West Ham, Sully posts a Dragonslayer message, and soon the whole room has received the latest - this time about Michelle's “massage parlour” opening for business. Sean is enraged at his mother now being dragged into things, and lunges at Miguel whom he believes responsible. Jimmy is now sure Dragonslayer must be someone in the team. Jason arrives home to find Katy and Emma socialising outside the house, and immediately fears the worst. Katy asks him why he never told her - that Miguel and Emma were seeing each other? As they walk away, Katy instructs Jason not to go anywhere near the gambling place Emma works! Soon Cindi has returned home to Gavin, and even sees the positives of Gavin being a reformed gambler, picturing the magazine spreads with tales of ‘Gavin's Gambling Hell’ they can do together. When Jason confronts him about what he's playing at having Emma move in with him next door, Miguel reveals she's a form of collateral just in case Jason ever decides to change his mind about the alibi. Liam takes Sean to the dressing room where Michelle is waiting for him. She tells him not to be embarrassed for her because of what Dragonslayer has said, as she’s had worse said about her and still fought back. As a favour to Jimmy, Michelle then joins him at a press conference where she thanks Dragonslayer for giving her business publicity, but to now let Harchester get on with winning the league. As the team board the coach, Liam and Gemma have a quick meeting in the gents where their romance is confirmed out loud, unluckily for them Sully happens to be in there and hears everything. By the time Liam has taken his seat onboard, Amy is showing Jimmy Dragonslayer’s latest sting: Which of the team is sleeping with his daughter?
