Bianca and Liam kiss and make up, and agree to meet that night for a romantic evening. At the Liam/Roo/Angelo houseshare, Angelo is trying to relax and put the trouble he's having with Brax to the back of his mind. The three of them have a game of poker, and crack open some beers. As the night wears on, the stakes escalate, and Liam forgets about his romantic night with Bianca. When he finally remembers he flies over there, but she smells the booze on his breath and sends him packing. Elijah starts his new job at the homeless shelter and is immediately daunted by what he sees there. His supervisor warns him that things get pretty tough there, and if he doesn't think he can handle it, he should leave. After work, he calls in at Angelo's and hits the whisky. Brax eventually takes a drunk and depressed Elijah home. Bianca helps April out with her homework and thinks she's worried over nothing - her essay is fine. When Dex calls round, he sees more evidence of April developing OCD. But when he tries to talk to her about it, she shouts at him and makes him promise not to talk to anyone about her issues.
