 Waiting for the 999 call centre to respond, Justine is shocked when the phone box door opens - it s Mr. Robson. Justine goes with him to the police station to give a statement about the stabbing and to try to describe the attacker. The next day, Mrs. Monroe tells Martha about the attack, but the fact that Justine was with Mr. Robson is ringing alarm bells in Martha s head. News spreads to everyone in the school - it reminds Jessica that her own incident was never resolved. Mrs. Monroe reiterates that the girls  play is banned, but they intend to perform it outdoors - there s already a lot of interest, and they start selling makeshift tickets. Josh shows Dennis his detailed plans for buying up old warships and refitting them as leisure centres. Maria tells Richard of her strict father, and he persuades her to go and listen to the choir practising. To Maria s disgust, the song sung is Greensleeves, but then Mr. Manyeke does something surprising - he tears up the song sheet, and tells the choir to do the same. He explains that his choir is going to be a "choral extravaganza" and practice becomes more dynamic. Mrs. Monroe s talk of Shakespeare in the Park gives Lucy the idea that their own drama could be done in any park, without permission. Dennis and Josh make Dave the caretaker spill his paint tin, and Dennis accidentally steps in the paint - Lucy notices the imprint he leaves behind, and considers it thoughtfully. Richard goes to have tea with Maria and his father - they discuss her "goth" appearance as though she isn t present, and Richard gets to see her chess trophies from an earlier age. Hard-up Sam has the idea of a computer tennis competition, with the intention of entering and winning himself. At the park, Lucy and the others fob off a park keeper with a lie that their teacher has organised their impending drama production. Then the performance starts, but it s immediately heckled by Dudley with cries of "get  em off" - Julie s reply to this is to grab Dudley and pull him onto "stage" and put him in his place. The girls  piece now re-enacts the destruction of the stage gear, showing it as a typical yobbish act of boys. Lucy looks knowingly in Dennis s direction, and he whispers "but it wasn t like that!"
