With Bethany (Holly Quin-Ankrah) disqualified, Karina (Michelle Collins) only has Jez (Marcus O’Donovan) left with which to take on Mal (Sean Gallagher). Jez’s interest is waning however.
Bethany and Lynette (Alison Newman) are ready to launch Bethany outside of Rock Rivals but have no success. Karina visits Lynette and discovers about the fish allergy that was let slip to Pete (James Anderson). Karina confronts Mal and Mal can’t deny the evidence. He fires Pete and is forced to re-instate Bethany. Bethany once more shuns her mother now she’s back in the show, and Lynette digs out an old secret in an envelope that she gets ready to use to bring Bethany down.
During an argument about suing for wealth, Mal accidentally runs Karina down. Karina is hospitalized and awakes from her coma with no recollection of their fighting. Mal bargains with Sundae (Nicola Hughes) to keep any news of previous fighting between them both secret. He picks up their relationship as if nothing ever went wrong and readies to use Karina’s amnesia to his advantage. Karina accepts his previous marriage proposal from the week before and it seems as if Mal’s legal troubles and fortune are safe.
Jinx (Sophia Dawnay) was laboring under the illusion that Mal still loved her, but his marriage proposal sends her reeling and she breaks some news she’d been waiting to tell him – she’s pregnant. Mal threatens Jinx to abort and makes his position clear – Jinx means nothing to him. We see Karina over-hear the conversation outside the dressing room – it looks as if some memories may have been triggered, but we’ll remain unsure as to exactly what. For now, Karina is keeping schtum.
Vernon (Gary Cooke) meanwhile, with Fade Up his only competitors left, is making sure they’re fully bonded as a team. He takes them to visit his house and uses it as an opportunity to promise his favorite boy, Addison (Robert Sheehan), a solo career in exchange for some “special attention”. A jealous Caleb (Kumar Kaneswaran) and Carson (Siva Kaneswaran) over-hear and set about plotting Addison’s downfall. They spike his drink with Viagra and Addison is forced to go onstage at “full mast”. The performance is a laughing stock and Fade Up are voted off.
Felix (Adam Leese) is back from his honeymoon and working in the house. Luke (Sol Heras) apologizes for the way he’s treated Felix and Felix is struck, confusing Luke’s compliments for advances. Felix lies that he got married to a woman whilst he was away and Luke invites the two of them along to the live show. Latex Luke gets jealous and Felix covers that he won’t be going but slips out nonetheless. After the show in Luke’s dressing room Felix mis-reads the signals and tries to kiss Luke. Luke rejects his advances and a mortified Felix runs off into the night in tears. With a double eviction of Jez and and Fade Up, Luke and Bethany are through to the final and a despondent Felix sits watching the show deflating the air from Latex Luke.
