Malachy was very excited about his new job and so insisted on going to his first day despite the fact that he was actually much too ill with flu to do so. He went, regardless, but only to return quite soon after, having realised that the only place he belonged was in bed. Upon his return home, loving wife Mercedes offered to go steal him some medicine and headed off. However, while she was away, Malachy's ex-girlfriend Cheryl made a surprise appearance and all too soon dragged him to Warren's funeral, where she was hoping to find Zak - who was forced into going to the deceased thug's funeral by Michaela. Cheryl's presence at the church irked Michaela, though, and they argued, but things got a lot more heated when Mercedes found her husband with his former lover and typically had a go. Cheryl a bit later tried to make peace with the McQueen family, though, with an offering of booze and crisps and, despite them initially being reluctant, things ended on a more peaceful note.

Meanwhile, Sasha and Spencer were both struggling with their emotions as the day of Warren's funeral finally arrived. All the ruckus at the church didn't help, though, and ended with Sasha throwing everyone out except for her and Spencer, who also actually disturbed her by refusing to come to terms with the fact that his brother is dead. The solicitor also arrived to tell Spencer that Warren left everything he owned to him, but this did not appease him. He, however, luckily found some solace when he receives a message from his brother.

Elsewhere, Newt's life was getting very complicated as he tried to come to terms with his feelings for both Lauren and Theresa, while the two of them were making his life hell with their jealousy and demands.
