Meanwhile, Carter Shepherd (David Ames) starts to turn the screws on his latest victim - oblivious teen Lucas Hay (Oscar Curtis).

But unbeknownst to both Ste and Lucas, Carter has a sinister agenda.

Events take a chilling turn when Carter tells Lucas that if he doesn’t want to be anything like his dad then he’ll have to go the extra mile.

Will Carter go back on his promise to John Paul McQueen (James Sutton) and start practising gay conversion therapy on Lucas?

Or is the lad going to wise up to Carter's dangerous game?
