No 24: Shane thinks that Maria is behaving like a child, by making him choose sides. She suggests that maybe he should move out, as it might help him to develop a little more tolerance - he asks if she's kicking him out, and she says that she doesn't want him to go, but it seems like the only solution as they can't continue to live like this. Shane decides that he'll move in with Max, but Maria isn't sure that's a good idea either. Shane gets annoyed and says that Maria should have just stayed away after she had the affair - she slaps him. Danny then appears, wanting to know what all the yelling is about, but Maria sends him back to bed. Maria accuses Shane of being just like his father, and he storms off, agreeing with her earlier comment that they can't go on living together.

Paul tells her not to be too hard on Shane, and starts to wonder if Shane and Daphne will get together. He remembers that they were pretty good together before Shane's accident, and thinks they would make a nice couple - Terry agrees.

He finds an old game, and offers it to Danny, who turns it down. Maria then walks out, and sends Danny to go and get ready for school.

He then admits that he's had a fight with Maria and they can't live together anymore.

He threatens to tell her friends that she wet her pants, if she doesn't give it back, but she says that her friends would never believe him.

Wendy offers to give Lucy the nail polish if she can get her the diary, but Lucy asks for Wendy's bracelet instead. Their conversation is interrupted by Shane walking in - Wendy sends Lucy to her room to see if there's anything she'd like. When they're alone, Wendy starts flirting with Shane, and he gets annoyed and says that she's too young for him, and he doesn't like people messing with his brother.
