Extended Summary

Fisher and Irene are shocked by the revelation of Luke’s plan. Shane is asleep when Nick returns from work and discovers Luke’s plan. Shane wants to leave school but Nick does not agree.

The next morning, Fisher hears about the deal and hopes that Nick is doing the right thing.

At school, Damian finds that Fisher is in a foul mood; Shane reveals the events of the last night. Damian tells him not to say anything but he is too late.

Pippa takes Jack to school to enrol him in and he is introduced to the headmaster, Fisher.

Luke returns and gives Irene a bunch of flowers but she does not accept. He tells her he tried to cancel but Fisher was gone and she told her she wanted to be kept in the dark. She tells him he could have tried harder.
