And Nicky finally makes her move.
When a permanent teaching post comes up at the school, Mrs Crenshaw tells Daniel that she'd like him to apply for it.
Meanwhile, David and Shona break the news to Max that he will be attending a Pupil Referral Unit for a year. And outside the flower shop, Nicky begs Ken and Tracy to cut Daniel some slack.
Shocked to see Ken and Daniel sharing a laugh together, Tracy rails at Daniel, threatening to report him to Mrs Crawshaw. On a mission to sabotage Daniel’s job, Tracy calls at the barbers in a bid to recruit David. What will he decide?
At No.1, Tracy lambasts Ken for taking Daniel’s side and Max returns from his first day at the new school on a high.
Later, after telling Mrs Crawshaw that he doesn’t think he’s cut out for teaching, Daniel stops by the Robers to reveal that he's decided to jack in teaching. And David reckons it’s the best news he’s heard in ages.
Telling Nicky about how he doesn’t deserve to be a teacher, how will Daniel react when she suggests they could have a future together?
