Finn's hearing begins with a damning portrayal of his character, leaving Gary and Ned feeling confident that he will be put away for a long time. However, Imogen's defence is clever and powerful, painting a more sympathetic portrait. Although Xanthe's victim impact statement is scathing, Susan balances it out and it's left to Bea and Elly to pull the final punches that will ultimately put Finn behind bars.
When Bea takes the stand, she wavers and, much to Ned's shock, makes the fateful decision to change her testimony on the spot. She sides with Susan, believing the person being tried today isn't the same one who hurt them all so terribly. Ned is flabbergasted and the whole outcome of the trial is now up for grabs.
Elly is the only one left who can sway the judge to incarcerate Finn. But when she spies Shaun and runs out on her chance to speak, the court is left baffled and the judge is forced to adjourn. Finn's chances appear to be improving.
Later, puzzled at where Elly has suddenly gone, Leo looks for her and finds her deeply upset. An anxious Elly asks who the man sitting beside Finn is and Leo reveals it's Shaun, Finn's brother. He's shocked when Elly breaks down. It's the worst possible thing he could have said… because Shaun is the father of her unborn baby.
