Outside, John tries to calm things down but has little luck. Ruby gets through to the police but everyone is tied up at a major accident elsewhere. In The Diner, another fire breaks out and Geoff burns his arm trying to protect Ruby. Romei and Mink visit Xavier. Mink immediately rubs Gina up the wrong way. Romeo has told Mink about Xavier's money and she takes some to get food from the Diner. Gina is worried that Mink is a bad influence. Miles plays cards with Rabbit, who claims she can see things. She says she has a vision of people hiding under tables, frightened. Miles, not taking it seriously, takes her to The Diner. When they see the flames, Rabbit runs away. Miles helps chase off the rioters by pretending to be a drunk and claiming the police are coming. Miles doesn't tell anyone that Rabbit tipped him off. The police and ambulances arrive. Geoff and Hazem are taken to hospital. Hazem is badly injured and Rachel has to operate on him.
