One of them is adamant that Ethan should hand himself in and confess to Maya’s murder, while others disagree.
With emotions running high there are heart-breaking consequences for Ethan when Sam comes to a decision about Ethan’s future.
Meanwhile, a surprising decision from Sienna convinces Ethan that there’s a romantic connection between them.

Furious at what Tony has done, a riled up Eric is hungry for revenge!
What will the volatile misogynist do next?
