Like Father Like Son is the sixth episode of Series 10.
Synopsis[]
Justin steps in to help Mickey McArthur, a grubby boy he sees shoplifting, but the boy repays him by stealing his wallet, so Justin goes to Havelock High to look for him to get his wallet back. Mickey ends up being kicked out of Havelock, and turns up at Waterloo Road to violently attack Justin in the playground. The realisation that there is urban poverty on his doorstep inspires Justin to open a food bank at the school. Sonya is entering a short story competition, but her trashy romance does not impress her colleagues, so Christine suggests she write about something from experience. Meanwhile, Kevin and Leo hack into the computer system of technology giant WireData Systems, and Floyd catches Tiffany with Justin in the latter's bedroom. A lovelorn Hector invites himself to a dinner party the Lowsleys are hosting for Vaughan and Allie, but Sue asks him to leave.
