Fitzgerald Motors: As Danni finishes up talking to the police, Kyle wanders over and asks what happened. Chris awkwardly spots a few petals
on the ground - the remnants of the flowers that Miguel brought over for him the previous night - as Danni tells Kyle about the damage to the cars. She explains that they've got the guy who did it on camera, but his face is
obscured by a hood, and if they don't find him they'll have to pay the insurance excess on every car. She asks Chris if he's sure he knows nothing - he insists that yesterday was just a normal day at work, so Danni goes inside
to call the customers and tell them what's happened to their cars. Kyle then suggests to Chris that it could have been that guy he was with yesterday, as he was pretty annoyed at being given the flick - Chris doesn't think he
had anything to do with it, and ignores Kyle as he says that he needs to be honest with Danni.
Dingoes Den Gym: Sonya arrives to find Josie is already there, having just completed a workout and about to do a boxing class. Sonya
tells her that she'll have no energy left for school, but Josie says that this is her way of waking up, and that it's already paying off, as Callum said she was looking good. Sonya tells her that she's always looked
good, but Josie just laughs. Sonya then suggests that Josie and her parents could come over for a barbecue, though Josie claims that they're busy. In a final effort to engage her, Sonya tells Josie to come over after
school, as Bailey's coming over too, and Josie finally agrees.
 
No 30: Bailey and Callum are preparing to leave for school - Bailey is checking Rani's Facebook page and is upset that she seems to have met
another guy already. Callum shuts the laptop and tries to get Bailey to move on, but he decides to leave for school, just as Gem comes in. Callum tells her not to take it personally, and explains that Bailey's been moody for a
while, and last week he was upset about that science essay and was even going to ask Susan to remark it. Gem realises that she's had a lucky escape, and asks Callum what's up with Bailey - he says that Bailey's ex is moving
on with someone else.
Harold's Store: Imogen is beginning her work experience, and Lauren is showing her how to stack the shelves. As Lauren goes into the
kitchen, Mason comes in and has a bit of a laugh at Imogen in her apron - though he stops when she threatens to throw a can of beans at him. She admits that she's finding it quite boring, though it was very nice of
Lauren to take her on at such short notice. She quickly finds herself in a hole, as Mason accuses her of insulting his family's business, but she smiles as he leaves and tells her that she looks hot in her apron.
Lassiter's Hotel - Reception: Amber is maniacally mopping up some drinks she spilt, worried about what Terese is going to say if she
finds out, as she already spilt a coffee all over her this morning. Mason catches her, and asks if she's OK, as she seems even more of a klutz than usual. Terese then appears from the lift, shocked at the scene that awaits her, and tells Mason to take over the mopping. She
then takes Amber over to the reception desk, where hopefully she can't spill anything.
 
Erinsborough High - Classroom: Gem finds Bailey sitting alone in a classroom, reading, and goes to sit with him. She says that she
heard about his ex, but he doesn't really want to talk, and wonders why she even cares. She explains that it's her business if one of her students is going through a difficult time, and she says that a similar thing
happened to her at school, when her boyfriend dumped her for someone else in year 10, and she had to spend the next two years watching them together. She tells Bailey that his situation is much simpler, and he could
just unfriend her and wipe her out of his life completely. Bailey thinks that Rani would see that as pathetic, but Gem tells him that it isn't pathetic to want to protect your heart, and he should just do it and start
thinking about the future, telling him he's a good-looking guy and he'll meet someone else. Bailey is grateful for her help, and she then mentions that, if he has a problem with a mark she's given him, just to come and
chat to her about it first.
Fitzgerald Motors: As Chris comes in, Danni has just finished going through the CCTV footage and she again asks him if there's anything else
he knows about who might have keyed the cars. Chris again says that he doesn't know anything, so Danni asks why there's footage of him having an intense conversation with a guy who looks a lot like the vandal. Chris then
explains that his name's Miguel, though he doesn't know his surname, and they hooked up but Miguel took it badly when Chris said that he didn't want to see him again. Danni tells Chris that his personal life is his own business,
but it can't keep impacting on the business. She gives him his second warning, telling him that if he makes one more mistake, he's out.
 
Harold's Store: Kate walks in, just as Georgia is about to leave for a run. Georgia apologises for starting her fun run training without
Kate, but says that she has to fit in her exercise wherever she can in her busy schedule. They complain about hardly ever seeing each other, and Georgia suggests that Kate put off work that evening and they go and see a movie.
Kate loves the idea, but her mood changes when Georgia suggests inviting Gem too. Across the room, Sonya is telling Susan of her concerns about Josie, and Susan asks Kate to join them. Sonya is worried about involving someone
else in the problem, but Susan explains that Kate is Josie's form teacher and can probably help. Sonya tells Kate about all of Josie's exercise, low self-esteem and body issues, but isn't sure is she's blowing things out of
proportion. Susan suggests that they send out a staff memo, so that her teachers can keep an eye on the situation.
Erinsborough High - Classroom: Gem is looking through her emails, ignoring the memo from Susan, as Kate comes in. She tells Gem about
the trip to the cinema, and suggests that they just put the past behind them and have some fun. Gem agrees, and then Kate asks if she's seen Susan's email - Gem says that she's just read it and it's all fine. As Kate leaves,
the class - including Callum, Bailey and Josie - arrives. Josie is chatting to another girl, but Gem tells her to stop gossiping.
Erinsborough High - Classroom: A little later, Gem is teaching the class about plant cells and animal cells. Gem asks them if they know what a venn diagram is,
and several of the girls put their hands up, but she chooses Bailey to explain. Callum asks Josie what's wrong, and she tells him that Miss Reeves only ever seems to pick the boys to answer questions. Gem then has to once again tell Josie to
stop talking, and won't accept Callum's claims that it was his fault. As Gem starts to build the venn diagram on the whiteboard, Josie picks her up on a mistake, and Gem tries to cover it up, before making a personal attack on Josie, about how
she's always had her head stuck in a book. Josie is completely humiliated, and Gem tells her that she can have double homework this week, as clearly the class isn't challenging enough for her.
Erinsborough High - Corridor: The class is leaving, and Josie is convinced that Miss Reeves hates her, though Callum says that maybe she's just
having a bad day. Bailey defends Gem too, but Josie thinks they can't see it because they're boys and she runs it, almost knocking down Kate. Kate asks her what's wrong, and a tearful Josie says that it's Miss Reeves...
 
Erinsborough High - Office: Gem is telling Susan that Josie is exaggerating, and that she simply disciplined her for giving attitude. Susan
thinks that she could have handled the situation better, given Josie's situation, but Gem doesn't know what she's talking about. Kate reminds her that she said she'd read the email, but Gem quickly covers up, saying that she only
received it but didn't get a chance to read it before class. Kate shakes her head in disbelief, as Susan explains about Josie's low self-esteem. Gem feels terrible and says that she takes her duty of care very seriously. She goes
to track down Josie and sort things out, and Kate tells Susan that she's sure Gem is lying about the email. Susan says that she has to take Gem's word for it, and making sure that Josie is OK is the priority right now.
Lassiter's Hotel - Reception: Amber and Mason are seeing off some hotel guests in a taxi, and Amber is in a better mood, as she hasn't stuffed
up in over two hours. As they go inside, Terese approaches Amber and asks about the guests in room 302, as they didn't pay for their coffees this morning. Amber explains that she gave them the coffees, as it's their 49th
wedding anniversary, but Terese tells Amber that she's in no position to be giving things away, as it's all lost profits for the hotel.
Lassiter's Complex: Kyle and Chris are walking over to Harold's, and Chris is explaining that the police found Miguel and he confessed
to everything and will be paying for the damage. Kyle is pleased when Chris says that he won't be making that mistake again, thinking that Chris is giving up on the random one-night stands, before realising that Chris is
still going to be picking up - he just won't tell any of the guys where he works from now on. He then gets a call from Danni and has to return to work, so Kyle goes into the store alone.
Harold's Store: Kyle is happy to see Georgia, as he has a lot to tell her, but she tells him he's late and her break is almost over.
He asks if they can meet up later, but she tells him about her night out with the girls, so they arrange to see each other the next day. At the counter, an old man is paying for his coffee, but is $1.50 short. He says that
it's normally not a problem, but Imogen tells him that she can't give discounts. Lauren then comes out of the kitchen and tells the man that it's not a problem - he thanks her and leaves. Imogen tells Lauren that she's just
been scammed, but Lauren says that Ron's on the pension and she's happy to help him out when she can. Imogen is quietly impressed with Lauren's attitude.
No 30 - Lounge: Bailey and Callum arrive back with fast food - a treat from Gem, who tells them not to tell Sonya where they got it.
Sonya then comes in and immediately realises who bought the food, and asks where Josie has got to, as she was meant to be joining them. Gem says that it's probably her fault, as she had a little run-in with Josie at
school. Bailey defends Gem, making it seem like Josie was the one at fault, but Sonya is concerned.
Dingoes Den Gym: Sonya tracks Josie down and asks her if she's OK, as she heard that she was upset about an argument at school. Josie
insists that she's fine, and Sonya tells her that people are worried about her. Josie wants to know who's been talking about her behind her back - Sonya explains that she just had a few concerns about how hard Josie is being
on herself, so she shared them with Susan, who told the other teachers. Josie is appalled that everyone thinks there's something wrong with her now, and leaves, telling Sonya to just leave her alone.
 
No 26: Georgia calls by to see Kate and checks that she's still up for their night out. Kate explains that she is, but Gem might not be, as
she had a run-in with a student. Georgia is immediately concerned, but can't believe it when Kate says that it was Gem who was rude to the student. Georgia refuses to believe that Gem would do that, especially as Kate didn't
see it happen, but Kate says that this has happened before - Gem gets backed into a corner and attacks someone. Georgia says that Gem isn't like that, but Kate thinks that maybe Georgia is just too close to her cousin to see
it. Georgia then tells Kate that, since she seems to hate Gem to much, then she won't want to go out with them later, and maybe she and Kate shouldn't spend any more time together either. Kate is left shocked.
