It's Aks's prom night, but will Mobeen let her go? With rumours about the debauchery at previous proms and the threat of a stabbing, Mobeen must safeguard her at any cost. Things get complicated when a classmate of Aks's, Ridwan, makes some very unwise decisions that leave Mobeen very concerned.

When Aks breaks her shoulder and heads for hospital with the boys, Accident and Emergency is the state of play. With Mobeen, Eight and Nate looking shifty de facto, the authorities start to get suspicious about how Aks may have sustained her injuries. In the waiting room, we see life in an overstretched A&E, and the gang in a constant battle to prove their innocence, battle prejudice and, of course, keep Pakistani Rain Man (Eight) out of trouble.

They say the past is never far away. And for Mobeen, it’s about to punch him in the throat.

Dogs and ethnic minorities have a very bad track record. So when a clip involving Mobeen and an Alsatian goes viral, it’s a disaster. Aks is drawn in by the prospect of internet fame, while Mobeen tries to see if the spark between him and Aks’s teacher, Miss Aitken, is worth pursuing. The past finally catches up with our hero, though, leaving him with some very difficult decisions to make. Our season finale will change the game forever.
