Meanwhile, John Paul McQueen (James Sutton) tells Ste that Lucas is being brainwashed by twisted headteacher, Carter Shepherd (David Ames) into believing that homosexuality is evil and sinful.

However, things take a TERRIBLE and DISTRESSING turn when events escalate between the two lads with tragic consequences. 

With Lucas later going missing, John Paul and Hannah Ashworth (Emma Rigby) go searching for him.
