After Nicky gets a frosty reception from Caleb over buying Nate’s shares, he heads to the pub to drown his sorrows, only to find himself menaced by a homophobic attacker from his past. Nicky calls a frantic Ethan for help, but Ethan’s attempt to play hero takes a disastrous turn.

Fearing a DUI after spotting a police car, Ethan swerves the car – only to crash violently. When he comes to, Ethan finds an unconscious Nicky trapped in the wreckage.

In a shocking twist, Ethan pulls Nicky free, but instead of calling for help, he flees the scene as a horrified Moira discovers Nicky’s lifeless body. Will Nicky survive?
