Erinsborough High - Classroom: Zeke asks Donna if she really went to find her dad or to get away from him. Donna tells him both, she doesn’t want to end up like her mum.
Harold's Store: Simon admits Sass is getting more and more out of control to Donna. Simon wishes he had somewhere else to go. Donna asks what’s happened, Simon avoids this question, so Donna then suggests he goes to their Grans, but Simon refuses to leave Tegan. As Simon goes, Ringo enters and admits he missed Donna. He admits he wants Donna back.
Erinsborough High - Corridor: Donna is telling Didge about what happened with Ringo in Harold’s Store.

Didge stops her saying there is graffiti in there about Ringo and Ashley.
Dingoes' Den: Steve and Ringo are practising boxing and Steve tells Ringo to be careful now he’s in big league. Susan enters looking for Zeke who’s wagged school. Donna approaches Ringo and asks him about Ashley. Donna calls him a liar and makes it clear she’s not interested.
Outside PirateNet radio station: Zeke knocks on the door which is again answered by Melissa. He is told to come back later.
Charlie's: Rebecca is running around serving people. Tegan approaches for bar snacks and tries to get an alcoholic drink for her mother. Rebecca pours the drink but leaves it behind the bar telling Tegan her mother needs to pick it up. Rebecca apologises about the April Fools mishap. Rebecca turns away to serve Steve. Sass soon starts shouting that Rebecca has served a minor and we see Tegan now holding what appears to be the alcoholic drink that was left behind the bar. Sass points out that it is a publican’s duty not to serve minors. Rebecca points out that she didn’t, but Sass says that she will get the law involved.
Harold's Store: Sass, Tegan and Simon are discussing what just happened. Rebecca walks in, she says that she could get a pretty hefty fine. She offers Sass free dinner and a full page apology in the Erinsborough News. Sass says she will consult her lawyer. Rebecca storms off.
Charlie's: Ringo sarcastically thanks Didge for telling Donna about Ashley. Didge says not to blame other people for his stuff ups. Rebecca is discussing the Sass incident with Toadie and Steve. Toadie doesn’t think Sass will go to the cops but if she does Rebecca will be up a creek. Toadie says that the fine could be up to $7,000, she will have a record and be under scrutiny from the cops and the licensing board. Rebecca says this will finish her.
No 28: Zeke is downloading on his computer. Susan is concerned about Zeke, she knows he’s up to something, just not what. Susan says that Zeke can come to her about anything. Zeke mentions he is stopping counselling. Susan leaves to feed the animals. Ringo enters, Zeke says to tell Susan he’s gone to the library.
No 22: Donna answers the door to Sass who briefly asks if Donna found her dad. Paul comes downstairs, Sass is looking for advice about Rebecca supposedly serving Tegan alcohol. Sass is wanting to use the paper to make the public aware. Paul suggests a couple of headlines, one of them being “Local Woman Frames Publican and Uses Own Daughter To Get Revenge.” Sass figures out Rebecca got to Paul first. Paul flatly refuses the offer to put this on the front page.
