Lauren and her cronies abuse Bethany when she returns to the street with Harry. Nick sees the fracas and goes to defend her. Lauren isn't threatened by Nick and calls Harry an ugly baby. To everyone's surprise, Nick loses it and hurls Lauren's bag onto the road. A stunned Nick wanders off in a daze as Lauren furiously picks her things up from the ground. She warns Bethany that they're both in big trouble. Lauren and her mum turn up at No.8 and accuse Nick of assault. Nick is apologetic and offers Lauren £10 to replace the burst shampoo bottle but the Platts defend him, even when they get the full story. Sarah is furious that Lauren is still bullying Bethany and David throws the pair out.
