On the eve of the trial, Nina's unnerved when a piece of music transports her back to the last day of Seb's life. Upon hearing from Roy that fragments of Nina's memory are resurfacing, Abi gets an idea and brings to the caf? the bag of items found on Seb's body.
Among the various bits and bobs, Nina's struck by the sight of a plastic heart ring and remembers Seb giving it to her.
Nina decides to retrace her and Seb's steps and takes Abi, Summer and Asha with her to the wasteland where they encountered Corey and Kelly.
Across both of tonight's episodes, in a series of specially shot reconstruction scenes, the audience is taken back to the night of Seb's attack and the truth about what happened is revealed to viewers and to a distraught Nina as her memory returns.
Meanwhile, Kelly and Corey prepare for the trial and Imran plays mind games with an over confident Sabeen with both lawyers confident their own client is telling the truth, but which one is?

As her recollection of the evening comes to an end, Nina cries, having remembered her last moments with Seb. She vows to go to the police to tell them what happened that night.
Alone in his cell, Corey remembers the aftermath of the attack. He ducked into a ginnel to change into fresh clothes from his rucksack, stuffing his blood-stained tracksuit back inside and stashing it in a hiding place before returning for it later and tossing it into the river.
Meanwhile, Imran and Kelly prepare to go into battle against Corey and Sabeen.

At the police station, Nina signs her new statement, hoping it will help bring justice for Seb. In court, Sabeen's concerned to hear about the new statement.
As Corey and Kelly's trial gets under way, Nina is encouraged by Roy to readopt her goth look as no one deserves to be persecuted for the way they look. Will Nina have a change of heart?
Meanwhile, as Seb's final voicemail is played, Kelly hangs her head in shame, while Abi shoots venomous looks.
Nina tells the court how she remembers seeing Corey kicking Seb repeatedly and Kelly begging him to stop. However when Sabeen cross examines her, will Nina's story stand up?

In court, Corey's barrister Sabeen questions Nina about the reconstruction that she staged and does her best to discredit her friends. Nina starts to lose her temper and the court takes a break, leaving Imran worried.
As the court resumes, Stefan looks at Corey, increasingly troubled by Nina's account.
Asha enters the witness box and tells how Corey bullied her and forced her to lie to the police. When Sabeen questions if she's still in love with Nina, what will she say?
Imran questions Asha, suggesting Seb was murdered simply because he got in the way ? Corey was in fact targeting Nina out of jealousy as Asha was in love with her and not him.
Asha's horrified at the implication it was her fault and outside sobs in a fuming Dev's arms.
Kelly reveals her mum has offered to give evidence, explaining she stopped her from going to the police straight away. Imran's unsure, aware Laura could be a liability.

Outside court, Abi rails at Stefan and suggests it's time his son started telling the truth.
Corey takes the stand and lies through his teeth, claiming Kelly viciously attacked Seb as he tried to stop her. Corey paints himself as the victim, telling the court how Kelly's dad is a gangster and she threatened to have him killed if he reported her to the police. Kelly listens, incensed.
Imran cross examines Corey, suggesting that in fact he was the one who killed Seb. Will Corey and friend Eli be rattled?
Meanwhile, when Curtis reveals that he's got a hospital appointment later to get his test results, Emma offers to go with him. However, when he suddenly collapses unconscious behind the bar at the Bistro, an ambulance is called.
Elsewhere, Fiz and Tyrone take a reluctant Hope to her first therapy session. Hope explains to the psychologist how she started the fire because she felt sad when her Daddy left and people are always leaving her. Fiz and Tyrone listen, heartbroken.
Also, George assures Todd that he'll dispose of Phelan's ashes in a respectful manner as soon as he can. Todd remains unconvinced. While George's back is turned, Todd tries to steal the ashes but as he lifts the lid on the urn, George returns and catches him red handed.

Judging by this write up, it does indeed look as though it is a battle between Imran and Corey's legal team, as I mentioned on another thread. Where do the CPS, who are actually the prosecutors, come into this?
they all deserve to go down, kelly isn't an innocent victim
