Zainab fights to save her marriage as Tamwar makes a confession. Billy resorts to desperate measures to make ends meet and the identity of the Blue Masquerader is finally revealed.

Zainab claims she didn’t tell Masood about Syed, because she was terrified it would wreck his relationship with Syed. Masood’s adamant, he’d never have let Syed go through with the wedding, for Amira’s sake.

Zainab implores Masood not let it pull them apart. Masood agrees, on the understanding that they make decisions together in future. However, when Tamwar announces he’s not going to university, Zainab explodes and Masood realises she’ll never change.

Zainab asks Masood to forgive her, as she has him. When she mentions stealing the post, Masood can’t believe she still doubts him. Masood packs Zainab’s bags and throws her out. Distraught, Zainab starts to gather up her possessions, someone offers her their hand – it’s Syed.
