Meanwhile, James Nightingale (Gregory Finnegan) is left feeling frustrated when he hears that his on-off love interest Ste Hay (Kieron Richardson) has accepted an offer on his house without consulting him.
Feeling like James doesn't treat him as an equal, Ste determines to fix his own problems.
When James and Ste later bump into John Paul and George, Ste's feelings of inequality are reaffirmed when James implies that a cleaner and a lawyer aren't a good match.

After the run-in with John Paul's exes, George rages with jealousy and the couple end up arguing. Later, John Paul is left drinking along on the city walls, where he reunites with Ste.
The next morning, John Paul wakes up on Ste's couch, but he's relieved to find out that nothing happened between the two of them.
Later, he lies to a furious George, explaining that he stayed at a hotel the night before. It doesn't take long for George to discover that John Paul is lying, however, and they get into another big fight.

Then, in an episode that puts John Paul at the centre, he finally faces the truth about his situation.
After being caught in a compromising situation, he's also forced to explain himself.
