Helen loses her rose-tinted glasses.
Jazzer tells Fallon he thought she and Wayne got along like a house on fire over Christmas. Fallon agrees. She's sorry that Jazzer's Christmas wasn't so good but he says punch-ups are traditional in his family. When Fallon asks if he'll be seeing his lady on Hogmanay, he tells her it's over; she was too good for him.
On an evening out, Tom, Brenda and Helen make a surprise visit to Leon's bar so that Helen can give him his Christmas present - and aromatherapy set. Ian turns up unexpectedly but Helen doesn't want him to join them. Helen's upset and angry when Leon goes straight up to a tarty looking girl and kisses her. Against advice, she marches up to confront them. Leon's nonchalant; he's not doing anything wrong. He and Helen are a casual relationship - he's just having fun.
Helen suddenly realises the truth about all those texts and phone calls. When another woman rings his mobile, she thrusts it in his drink. He might as well have his Christmas present whilst she's at it - because he stinks! Helen regrets not listening to Ian. Brenda and Tom offer to leave with Helen, but she wants to be alone.
