bill and is horrified to find she owes over £600. Baz, meanwhile,
demands to know where she got the money from for Tanya's clothes.

Chloe and Andrea turn their venomous attentions to Alison. Alex tries apologising to Alison but she is uneasy around him. Alex is left to work alone in class. The feud between Togger and Abel continues apace with Abel refusing to play in the school match. Togger accuses him of letting his mates down and refuses to let Abel copy his work. Max's arm might be broken but not his malevolence - he takes another shot at Baz who pins him to the wall. Mr Wainwright breaks up the sparring pair; Maddie appears as a father-and-son row erupts. Maddie and Baz appear to be getting on, but Baz said he can't be "just friends". Dad almost catches Annie with her credit card bill. Baz catches her selling CDs and demands answers. She claims she got them off Dad's credit card. Annie carpets Baz for getting excluded. Tanya rushes out of class feeling sick; she runs to the toilets and breaks down. Tearfully, she admits to Karen she isn't coping with her ordeal. What made Tanya bolt was the discovery of an e-mail, apparently from a girl claiming to have had a similar encounter with her attacker. Tanya fears it's really from him - how did this "girl" get her e-mail address - on the other hand it could be genuine. Karen urges her to tell someone. Alex tries again to apologise to Alison - and hints he won't be bothering her again. He continues his video diary, saying the only time he can shut everything out was when he was under water. Spencer sends Alex away when he tried handing over the footage - he's too preoccupied with finishing the film. Alex leaves the DVDs on the table.The school gets ready to watch the football match. Alex takes a detour back into Miss Adams' classroom, where he fills his bag with heavy textbooks. He then proceeds to the swimming pool and throws himself in. Spencer sifts through Alex's footage and remains oblivious to his agonies - until he spots a DVD labelled "For Mum and Dad". Spencer races to the pool and is joined by Baz, who finds the lifeless Alex face-down in the water. Baz jumps in but cannot pull him out. The pair get the bag off and winch Alex out of the pool. Spencer shouts for help as he and Baz try to resuscitate him. Annie and Tanya witness the horror, and call an ambulance. As Mr Malachay rushes to the pool, Tanya and Annie vow no matter how bad things get, they'll never consider ending it all. Alex regains consciousness and is taken away in an ambulance; Malachay praises Baz for his swift actions but Spencer realises he's let Alex down big time. |
