Faye's back to blackmail Mary
After getting a message from an unknown number asking to meet, Mary's shocked to see a dishevelled Faye waiting, having been sleeping rough in her car. Faye initially tries to claim that she loves Mary but then things turn sour as she blackmails Mary - either she changes her witness statement or a non-consensual nude will be sent out to all of her contacts.

When Rhona comes home, she's baffled to find Faye there acting all smug and nonplussed. Mary admits the truth to her daughter about the blackmail and Rhona resolves to find a way to sort things.
