S20 E45 (12 Aug 06) : The Truth Game by Linda Thompson
Episode Summary
Abs wants to spend some time with Nina but she is fed up with staying in and organises a party without telling him. He arrives home to find the party in full swing and, when the couple end up arguing, Nina tries to turn her attention to Greg, who rebuffs her.
Guppy decides it’s time to live life to the full. He gets drunk at the party and ends up snogging Kelsey.
Meanwhile, Sam tells Tess that he is going to live at Kelsey’s and that he doesn’t want to live with his dad when he comes home. Tess is shocked and hurt but, after a terrible day at work, Maggie persuades her to go bowling with the girls. Tess admits that she, too, is unsure if she wants Mike to come home.
A fight ensues at Lydia and Ernie’s wedding between their bickering families. When Ernie learns he also has an STD, it causes friction between the pair but they make amends. Meanwhile the DJ at the event comes in with his son, Simon, who fakes an epileptic fit because he wants his attention.
