Synopsis

Rose is getting her children back, and the school passes an inspection, despite a confrontation between Tom and Rob (who is now dating Jasmine). Rachel tells Melissa she should inform Eddie of her situation. Whilst Melissa claims she is waiting for her divorce, Philip tells Rachel that Melissa is still married to her first husband as well as his father. Steph is worried about Maxine, whilst Earl continues to convince Maxine they should settle down. Maxine meets a girl who claims she has had a baby by Earl, which he is hoping to sell.
