SeaBoy is walking down a dark-ish corridor. He calls out, to no-one in particular, if this is necessary. Nobody answers, and SeaBoy bemoans the fact that Wolfram always disappears right when he's needed. He hears two voices up ahead, and ducks into a closet. Two orderlies walk on by, discussing their big evening the night before. Once they've gone, SeaBoy slowly continues down the corridor, until he reaches two big swing doors. He cautiously opens them, and shouts out "hello". When nobody answers, SeaBoy quickly scampers in, shutting the door again and walking nervously over to the freezers on the other side. He goes to one freezer door, breathes heavily, closes his eyes and opens it. He peeks, but the freezer is empty. Exhaling sharply, he closes the fridge door, and turns, to be confronted by Wolfram. He screams, but Wolfram quickly clasps a hand over his mouth. He tells him that he shouldn't be so loud, and SeaBoy says he wouldn't be if people didn't creep up on him. Wolfram apologises, saying that he thought he'd better hurry things up. He walks over to one freezer, and opens it. He points inside, telling SeaBoy to bring him out. Slowly, SeaBoy reaches into the freezer and pulls out Wolfram's body. Like his "ghost", the body is badly burned, but there's a bluish tinge to the body. SeaBoy asks if this is going to work, and Wolfram says that he hopes so. He clambers up onto the gurney, and lies down on top of his body. He instructs SeaBoy to start chanting, and the camera turns to a face-on view of SeaBoy, as he closes his eyes and stammers out various words in Latin. After a minute, he cautiously opens one eye, and sees that Wolfram, the ghost is gone. He pokes the body lightly, calling out Wolfram's name. Nothing happens, so he tries it again. From behind him, a hand clasps his shoulder, spinning him round - it's Wolfram. SeaBoy asks what happened, and Wolfram says that he's not sure. But he thinks that his body is too far gone to be reawoken. He looks as if he's about to cry, saying that there might not be a way to bring him back after all.

AngelX storms into her office, followed by Stormy, who is demanding that AngelX rethink their options. AngelX says that she has, and that they really only have one option available to them. Stormy says that they must be able to come up with the money themselves, and AngelX retorts that unless she's a high-class hooker on the side, there's no way either of them has that much money between them. She sits down behind her desk, and picks up the phone. Stormy slams her hand down on the latch, and AngelX looks up at her sternly. She repeats that they don't have a choice, and just then Toothy walks in, saying that he hoped she'd say that. AngelX asks what he's doing here, and Toothy says that she should be more welcoming of her "saviour". Stormy confronts him, asking how he knew about their financial difficulty, and Toothy says that he has eyes and ears everywhere. He pulls out a document from his pocket, and says that all AngelX has to do is sign it, and their problems will be over. AngelX glances at Stormy, who walks out, saying that it's none of her concern anymore.

Back at the hospital, Veggie completes her exam of Morgain. She says that there is definetly more damage than they originally suspected, and that they should consider upping Morgain's physio to three appointments a week. Morgain thanks her, then asks about a prescription. Veggie unclips a piece of paper from the chart, signs it, and gives it to Morgain, saying that this should ease the pain a lot better than the Dyhoxydrol did. Morgain thanks her, and is about to leave, when she asks about Shrub. Veggie says that she's still the same, and Morgain asks if things are that bad. Veggie walks up to her, and asks her to keep this a secret for the moment, and Morgain confirms that she will. Veggie says that Shrub's vitals have not been that good since she went into the coma, and she's showing no signs of waking up. Short of her famly buying the bed, and the machines being used to keep her alive, pretty soon they're going to have to unplug her. Morgain looks stunned, and quietly asks Veggie how long. She shrugs, saying that she's not sure. But that they won't give up hope just yet. Morgain and Veggie collect themselves, then Morgain leaves, saying that she'll be back tomorrow for physio.

At the pharmacy, Morgain is standing the queue, when a female voice behind her calls out her name. She turns, and Amber is standing there, carrying a huge bag. Morgain squeals in delight, and the two women hug. Morgain asks what Amber's doing back, right in the middle of the semester, and Amber says that she took some time out, sort her head out and suchlike. They hug again, and Morgain says that it's brilliant to see her again. She asks where Amber's staying, and she says that she was hoping somebody would put her up until she could get her old place back. Morgain says that she'd be happy to give Amber a room for a few days, and says that she's just got to get her prescription. She asks what Amber is doing in the pharmacy, and Amber motions to the rack next to her - tampons. Morgain laughs, saying that she should've guessed. They hug again, and a pharmacist calls out Morgain's name. She takes a bag, opens it and pops two of the pills out of the bottle. She instantly downs them, swallowing them hard. Amber looks on, slightly confused, asking Morgain if it's safe to do that. Morgain smiles, saying that it's totally safe, and that her back's killing her. Amber asks what happened, and Morgain says that it's a long, but interesting, story. As the two women walk out of the store, a man standing in line turns to watch them leave, waits a moment, then follows them out.

In a hospital room, Salty comes in, gingerly knocking on the door first. LB sits up in bed, greeting Salty with a weak smile. Salty asks how she's been, and she replies that she's felt a lot better. They look at each other for a moment, and then their smiles disappear. Salty sits on the edge of the bed, telling LB that for what its worth, Crumpet's dead. LB asks if its wrong to be happy about that. Salty looks up, and says that it might be, but these are extenuating circumstances. After a moment of silence, LB asks Salty if the baby's dead. Salty doesn't say anything, and LB continues, saying nobody will tell her anything, but that she can feel it, or rather she can't feel it. A tear forms in Salty's eye, and she confirms that the baby didn't survive. LB clenches her eyes shut, then opens them again. She smiles, saying that at least she won't have to make a choice anymore. Salty smiles aswell, saying that they shouldn't be making jokes about this. LB concurs, and they sit in silence again. Salty eventually moves closer to LB on the bed, and grasps LB's hands in hers. She looks LB in the eye, and says that they can start again. That they can start with a clean slate, and everything will go right this time. LB looks at her, then leans down to kiss her. She agrees, saying that if anything, it can't be any worse than what's happened these past two weeks. The two women laugh, as the camera pulls out of the scene.

Back at AngelX's offices, she is finishing reading over the document. Toothy sits opposite her, lounging in the chair. He asks her if the contract is suitable, and AngelX says that of course it isn't. Toothy remarks that the money freed up by selling The Main Board to him would enable to AngelX's accounts to climb up into the black. AngelX says that she only said the contract wasn't suitable - not that she wouldn't sign it. She takes a pen, and after a moment's though, signs it. She hands it over to Toothy, sighing heavily. He smiles, telling her that it was just what he's been waiting for. He pulls out another contract from his pocket, and hands it to AngelX. She asks what it is, and he says that he's handing control of The Main Board over to an associate, and that the contract AngelX signed was never intended to stick. AngelX demands to know what Toothy is playing at, and he asks her to follow him outside. She slams the contract down on the table, and follows Toothy out into the car park, where a limo is waiting for them. Toothy knocks on the window, and the door opens. He motions AngelX to get in, and she climbs in, pissed off at this latest turn of events. She sits down, and looks across from her - to see ABM and Dandy sitting there, sharing a bottle of champagne. ABM pulls off his sunglasses, and perkily says "hi" to AngelX.

Amber remains cagey about her reasons for leaving Uni, but when a mysterious man asks about her around the town, she turns to her good friend ABM for help...

ABM and Dandy set up alongside AngelX and Stormy, much to the latters' chagrin. Things get even more complicated, though, when the reasons behind them being there come to light...

SeaBoy thinks he may have an idea on how to save Wolfram, but first he'll need to convince Veggie that he isn't a lunatic - which might prove harder than he first realised...

And as LB recovers from her shooting, Salty gets back to work at the restaurant with Gemma - but finds that something is amiss with everyone's favourite bartender...
