In an attempt to help overcome his gambling addiction, Lucas attends a Gamblers Anonymous Meeting but can't confront his gambling demons and, still reeling from his personal belief that he is responsible for Bridget's death, soon bails on the meeting.
Meanwhile, a disappointed Josh gives Elle a dressing down for the article she has written naming and shaming Lucas as the one responsible for Bridget's death. Following their confrontation, Elle calls a friend at the Star and lies, telling them that Josh has given the go-ahead to print the article.
The following morning, Ramsay Street is shocked to see Elle's story splashed across the front page with the headline 'Gambler mechanic causes teen tragedy'. Declan confronts Lucas over the article while Elle explains to the others about Johnno tampering with the Parkers' vehicle. An upset Declan heads down to the police station to find out just what is going on in the case about Bridget's death. Despite learning Johnno is responsible for the Parkers' accident, Declan learns some news that could very well push him over the edge.
Later, Lucas tracks down Johnno to the hotel and offers him a proposition - one last double or nothing poker match. If Johnno wins he can double Lucas's debt, but if Lucas wins Johnno must turn himself in. Will Johnno accept Lucas's proposition?
Meanwhile, Ringo is struggling with his studies and refuses Karl's offer for assistance. After Ringo helps the Kennedys put together some flat pack furniture, Karl is struck with an idea that just may help Ringo in his studies.
