Further details
Tracey has given up smoking and Sharon isn't helping by smoking around her and telling her she has been eating more since she quit.
Sharon tells Tracey she is bonkers for seeing Gerald, a psychotherapist who has blamed her problems on Darryl for being locked away. She has also being having vivid and explicit dreams.
Tracey confronts Darryl about why he turned to crime, he explains that he wanted a better life and didn't want a dead end job. She doesn't tell him about visiting Gerald.
Dorien reveals to Sharon that Gerald is good looking and not old as Tracey had claimed, leading them to think she has a thing for him.
In prison Chris puts the idea into Darryl's head that Tracey has another man.
Gerald questions why Tracey won't tell Darryl about seeing him, he also offers Tracey a hug, which leads to Tracey developing an unhealthy fixation.
Darryl doesn't like it when Tracey reveals the truth about seeing Gerald, though eventually calms down, soon after Gerald ends Tracey's treatment and recommends another therapist after realising Tracey's feelings.
