Air date: Sep 21, 2010

Stevie retrieves a box from under her bed, and when Naz checks on her she sees a birthday card so decides to organise a dinner party. Sol and Asher attend callbacks for the dance crew, but Skolla tells Sol he is too slow and asks him to do the routine solo. Sol is put off by having an audience and leaves. Asher assures Skolla that Sol is a good dancer and then meets Ekin, telling him that Naz is already seeing someone. Naz finds Stevie sitting alone in the launderette while Asher tells Sol that the dance crew is their future. Naz reveals that her arranged marriage to Ekin is down to her father and she does not want to marry him. She takes Stevie back to the flat where the dinner party is set up. Stevie gets a short phonecall from her mother in Brazil, and Naz looks at the birthday card. It is from when she was thirteen and Stevie reveals it is the last card she got from her family. Naz says to forget her family as tonight they will celebrate properly. The food is ruined so Sol goes out to buy chips, but Ekin sees him and tells him to tell Asher that he is not Naz's boyfriend and he should stick to his own kind, leaving Sol thinking Asher and Naz are seeing each other.
