Stole Fisher’s daggy photo from Nick.
Extended Summary
Fisher took Irene’s advice about persisting with Seb. He gave him some photos to look at. While Seb was flicking through them, Nick came in, and in his hurry to hide them, a photo of Fisher in flares slipped out. Somehow one of the students got hold of it and now it’s plastered all over the school. Fisher’s furious and is taking it out on Seb. This isn’t good, as Sally had suggested a remedial night course for students like Seb at the DIC. Fisher is overreacting, which isn’t helping Seb’s case at all.
Ralph’s still playing the dying father on Vinnie and Leah. He’s been telling Vinnie it’s good he’s learning how to run the business, because he doesn’t know how long he’ll be around. Apparently he’s got another appointment with the doctor this afternoon. Vinnie wants to take him but Ralph says to leave it alone.
Hayley’s taking her breakup with Aidan badly. She admits Aidan’s a jerk, although she wishes she hadn’t done what she did in the restaurant. Gypsy has tried to convince her he deserved it. Aidan visited her to say goodbye. He said he was sorry things hadn’t worked out between them. Thankfully, Hayley told him how she felt he’d been trying to shape her into someone she wasn’t.
Now that he knows she is single, Noah’s keen to see Hayley, but Gypsy’s advised him not to as she thinks Hayley might think he’s being an opportunist. Perhaps they’ll be able to work on getting back together again…
