Sadie is out of hospital and her daughter, Ann Marie, wants to put her into a home but she's having none of it - she insists she'd rather be the sitting tenant in the Hope Springs Hotel. But the girls aren't exactly welcoming towards Sadie, convinced she's responsible for their financial strife.

Taking money matters into their own hands, Shoo and Josie decide to rob the local bookies. Before they can put their ill-conceived plan into action, Gil arrives. When Josie sees Gil lead Shoo out of the bookies, she assumes her friend is under arrest and calls Ellie - who's furious that Shoo has needlessly drawn attention to the gang.

Broke and desperate, the women's only option is to rob Sadie of the thousands they paid for the hotel but, feeling decidedly unwelcome, Sadie sets her sights on buying a luxury new flat. The girls need to stop Sadie before she discovers her money is missing.

Following the bungled robbery at the bookies, a rift grows between the girls and Shoo decides to take her cut of the money and run, but Josie and Hannah aren't quite so keen to leave Hope Springs and Ellie behind.

Elsewhere, Ann Marie and Euan meet to discuss a secret venture but it is clear there's more to their relationship than just business.

Leaving Hope Springs behind, meanwhile, Shoo uses a borrowed mobile phone to call her ex-boyfriend, drugs dealer Nathan Donovan. She arranges to meet Nathan in Glasgow to rekindle their romance but, after she discovers his plans to rob her, she makes a hasty return to Hope Springs.

An ex-boyfriend with a sore head is a dangerous thing and, unbeknown to the women, Nathan is about to give vengeful hitman Marius the lead on the girls he's been waiting for.
