Rhona receives a video call from Vanessa and is horrified to realise that she and Johnny are being held prisoner by her evil ex. Fearing what Pierce might do to her friend, Rhona arrives at Mulberry Cottage and plays along with his crazy plan for them to run away together.

Knowing one word from Ray could see her back behind bars, Abi approaches his hotel room, but will she go through with it?
