What does Elliot have planned for Nicole? Just when Aden and Belle get things together, Larry’s back! Should Rachel be worried about Jimmy?

Extended Summary

With Annie still down and upset about her ban from seeing Jai, Geoff sees in the Jeans for Genes day fashion parade a chance to distract her. Nicole agrees to help a group from school decorate their jeans, blowing off Elliot to do so, to his considerable displeasure. Despite having told Belle he wouldn’t, Aden decides to go in the parade she’s organised as a surprise. The parade is a huge success, Belle is thrilled with Aden and Nicole wins, but Elliot can’t drag her away fast enough.

When Jimmy comes into hospital after suffering a severe beating, Rachel’s the only one available to treat him. Uncomfortable with his growing dependence on her, she tells him that she wants another doctor to treat him from now on. Dismayed, he’s nevertheless only too happy to stay in hospital for as long as she wants. With his police report riddled with inconsistencies, could this all be part of some twisted plan?

After yet another mysterious meeting at the hospital, Aden is finally ready to go all the way with Belle, he does and afterwards he reveals that he’s been going to therapy for her, to show her how important she is to him, and she’s over the moon to hear it. It seems things are finally coming together for them. And then Larry appears, pale, sick and shaking.

Roman’s unsettled when Elliot lets him know of Nicole’s diving lessons. He decides to take over as her diving instructor, but Nicole’s not interested, to Elliot’s relief. After she’s dragged away by Elliot after the fashion show, Geoff goes to see if Nicole is okay. He’s worried about the way Elliot treats her, and in suggesting she deserves better, admits that he likes her, surprising himself as much as her. When Nicole explains to Roman that Elliot didn’t want to go in the show because of his tattoo, which reads, in Latin, ‘my brother’s keeper’, and reveals that Elliot told her about Mark, Roman’s suspicions are only heightened. Meanwhile, in the bait shop, Elliot tampers with Nicole’s oxygen tank. What has he got planned?
