Diane returns to The Dog and walks in to find former foes Cindy Cunningham (Stephanie Waring) and Suzanne Ashworth (Suzanne Hall) arguing about the past.
Cindy ends up chucking a drink in Suzanne's face before Diane kicks them out and dashes off to collect Tony.
Conscious that Rose is waiting at home to speak to her, Diane runs a red light - and is clocked by a passing police car.
As the cops catch up with them, Diane panics and asks Tony to say he was driving because she had wine at lunch.
But she's caught out when the police perform a Breathalyzer test and arrest Diane for driving whilst over the limit.

Unbeknownst to them, Abe is watching on and when he later discovers Mercedes going through his locker at the Youth Centre he wants answers!
Mercedes challenges Abe about a secretive call he made the previous day, but he has an answer for everything and insists he was on the phone to his mum.
Is he spinning her another lie?
