Andy is in court doing an excellent job representing himself until his sister Bernie takes the stand. Will she convince the jury that her brother is the actual villain she’s experienced all her life?
Guilt and confusion is also forced upon poor Nathan, this seasons new comer who took the bait of his estranged father, Andy while also falling at the behest of a selfish Sorcha.

Can the guilty Sorcha make amends for the ruination of Nathan in Bobbi Lee’s eyes. Will Sorcha do the decent thing and have the courage to face up to her lies or is she far too afraid of the manipulative, Briain, who uses his public sombre face to shield the real and rather unscrupulous character he has become.
Caitriona continues to go deeper down her tunnel of money arrears, and lies, with absolutely no conscience for her betrayal of everyone around her.

Will Frances get to the bottom of the missing Credit Card before more money disappears?
To add to Frances’s woes is Malachai, who is suffocating her, and she can’t shake him off. Has Michelle’s millions anything to do with his stifling behaviour? How will Frances suppress Malachi’s overwhelming attention?
