Maisie wakes up in a grotty bed-sit with a huge hangover and is utterly despondent when she finds that money's been left on her pillow. Meanwhile, Diane comforts a concerned Natasha when Maisie doesn't return home.

Returning to the village, Maisie heads straight to the pub for a drink. When she begins slurring her words, Bob and Marlon are reluctant to serve her but don't realise that she's serving herself.

As she downs gin, Bob tries to throw her out but she slaps Marlon. Refusing to leave, she rushes to the toilet in tears. Unable to bear her own reflection, she thuds her forehead against the mirror and smashes it.

Later, Katie turns up at the pub after hearing what a state Maisie's in. Katie's scared when she finds her collapsed in a heap on the floor, utterly distraught.

A hungover Maisie surfaces but she's dismissive when Nathan and Natasha suggest talking about last night. Meanwhile, Katie tells Ryan that he needs to open up about his feelings and her curiosity is satisfied when he claims that he's absolutely fine.

Later, Natasha thanks Ryan for calling Nathan but she's filled with dread when a police car pulls up outside. Natasha's frozen to the spot as the police reveal that they've recovered a body and they'd like her to go with them. Have the police found Mark?

When Natasha returns from taking a fragile Maisie to the retreat, Nathan makes it hard for her when Will asks questions as to Maisie's whereabouts. Ryan, meanwhile, is desperate to stop Katie discovering the truth about Maisie and kisses her, insisting that she needs to stop worrying about Maisie and focus on their relationship.

At Home Farm, Faye turns up asking after Maisie but Nathan hatefully scorns her and Natasha's forced to ask Nathan to leave.

Later, Nathan fumes as he watches Katie and Ryan together and asks Ryan for a quiet word. Enraged, Nathan warns Ryan that he's not getting a penny of Mark's money as he assumes that's what Ryan's sticking around for. Nathan coldly demands that Ryan stay away from his family.
