But Dynasty has her world rocked when her criminal ex-boyfriend arrives at the gates. Steve-O Malone is out of prison, and he wants to start a new life with her in Liverpool. Impressionable Dynasty goes along with him, and agrees to drop out of Waterloo Road and start a new life with him. Much to her disappointment, Kevin doesn't seem to be upset at the news.

However, Tom makes a life-changing offer to Maggie and throws her a lifeline when he says that he will offer to be a kidney donor for Grantly.
Then, Audrey's future hangs in the balance when both Michael and Lorraine tell her that Waterloo Road need to cut their budget.
