 Annie s credit card bill of over six hundred pounds gives her new headaches. Alex tries to make friends again with Alison, to the amusement of Chloe, but she doesn t want to know, and he s isolated again. Baz and his father go before Mrs. Bassinger, after his risky wall climbing stunt, which has left Max with his arm in a sling. Tanya gives Annie the money she was owed - but to her horror, it s a cheque to her mother. Togger s worried about the lunchtime game, given that Abel won t play, and Baz is banned from playing. Tanya suddenly runs off sick, and Karen investigates. She digs the truth out - that Tanya has received an email from a girl who claims to have also been attacked by the same bloke who kidnapped her. Maddie defuses a dangerous moment between Baz and his dad, when he s arguing with Max. Alex makes one last try to get to speak to Spencer, but his so-called mentor is next to useless - Alex leaves him his personal video diary. Baz is puzzled to find his sister selling things to others to raise cash - he finally works out that she s racked up a credit card bill. Alex seems to have his own agenda as people head out to watch the soccer match. Alone, he goes back to the classroom and fills his bag with heavy books. Mr Malachay finds Spencer editing the video, and reminds him to go to watch the football match with the others. Spencer can t resist looking at Alex s disc to see if it has some filler material, and starts to listen unsympathetically to the boy pouring out his heart. Alex arrives at the swimming pool, his thoughts entirely filled with memories of hateful and abusive voices. The last one he recalls is Malachay s observation that taking control will make him feel better - so Alex takes control, and with the heavy bag secured to his back, he plunges forward into the pool. Back at the editing suite, Spencer suddenly notices that one of Alex s discs is labelled "To Mum and Dad", and at the same time, on the video, Alex mentions being under water. With a realization of Alex s intent, Spencer runs out to the pool, grabbing Baz on route. The pair find Alex lifeless in the pool - Baz dives in, but can t lift Alex on his own. Spencer joins Baz in the pool, and the bag is removed. While Baz struggles to get life back into the still form of Alex, Spencer yells for help. Annie and Tanya, who have been sharing their respective problems in the IT Room, hear the shouting, go to the pool and are told to ring for an ambulance. They do so, and run to the football pitch, to alert Mr. Malachay. As help arrives, there s relief as Baz s efforts are successful, and Alex breaths air on his own. Mr. Malachay apologizes to Baz, and tells Spencer he is a hero - but Spencer can t be placated so easily, realizing that he s failed Alex...
