Harry has everything; the Brighton Beach mansion, the beautiful wife, a son and a successful business. But Harry stands to lose all of that as a result of slapping Hugo at Hector's birthday. Harry tries to downplay the seriousness of what could happen to Sandi, his wife, who is very agitated. He turns to his cousin Hector, for support, but Hector is torn between his loyalty to his wife, who is best friends with Rosie, and his family. Harry's anxiety continues when Gary rings late one night threatening to go to the media. Harry has lunch with a lawyer friend, who reassures Harry that he has nothing to worry about, but Harry is not convinced. When Hector suggests to Harry that perhaps he should talk to Gary and Rosie and apologise, he is at first furious at the idea, but when Manolis warns him that he is turning into his father who died angry, he relents. But his apology to Gary and Rosie doesn't go as planned, with Rosie refusing to accept it. She further antagonises him by asking him if he beats Sandi and Rocco. Harry's anger boils and he runs out of the house before he loses control again. Not being able to shake his anger, he returns to Gary and Rosie's house later that night with a crowbar. He is about to get out of his car when he is haunted by an image of his father. As he drives home, Sandi calls him to tell him that Rocco has run away. When Harry finds him, Rocco breaks down blaming himself for Harry slapping Hugo. Harry is distraught at what this is doing to his family. When he arrives home, the police arrive to question him.
