Chesney Brown hurtles down the stairs to find the washing machine flooding the kitchen and an oblivious Gemma preoccupied with her headphones on. A mortified Gemma promises to buy him a replacement.

Chesney is furious at Gemma for wasting money, and admits to Tyrone that having her in the house is like having another toddler and he is unsure if they have a future.
