They find his name is Kyle and he is in their class. Holly is organizing a surprise party for Baz: Chloe finds out and is determined to attend, so she can be near Max.

With Tanya off meeting her "Luke" bloke, Emma is alone with Kyle, and they get on well. Lucy has some advice for Bryn - don't draw attention - keep quiet.

He soon starts getting anonymous texts, but assumes they are coming from Eleanor. Holly isn't pleased to see Baz chatting up Anna Duncan - Karen reassures her that's it's nothing. Kyle arrives late, with an excuse that his family were at a Horse Fair; only Emma seems to be impressed by him though. Andy is in a mood - he has something to tell Togger, but there never seems to be the right moment. Karen's Salsa class starts up - but there are perilously few people turning up. Max arrives - and departs when it's clear Eleanor has no interest in him - then Jeremy turns up with a bunch of people from the Chess Club. Ross is surprisingly good - Taylor watches him getting close to Karen with a jealous look. Andy almost makes a fool of himself when Emma asks him if Kyle would go out with him, but recovers in time. Kyle makes it clear to Emma that he's interested in her - banishing doubts that he might fancy Tanya instead.

It transpires that she was just giving the number of her phsyiotherapist - they were chatting about sports injuries. Alex washes up his smoothie jugs, left alone after Tigger and Ed have left.

Mooey increases pressure on Alex to produce cash for him: Martin suggests Alex advertises the smoothies in the dance class.

On the football pitch, Togger has it in for Baz, and the two play a violent game against each other. When Togger pushes Baz to the ground, he does not rise again - Mr. McDonnell fails to resuscitate him.

The teacher reads between the lines and searches Mooey's bags, but finds nothing - Mooey gives Alex a stark warning that Baz is not there to save him now. Togger tells Tanya that he was angry with Baz not really because of Anna, but because of Baz seeing Tanya. He cries in her arms, and they almost kiss, but Togger moves away. Back at school, Holly and Donnie reminisce about Baz, but each has their own expectations which conflict - Baz had both promised to go onto college with Donnie and to go traveling with Holly. Donnie blames Togger for Baz's death, and swears that he'll get what he deserves.
Episode 7
Emma tells Tanya that she has spoken to Annie and that although the official post mortem is not released, it is thought that Baz's death was a result of the events on the football pitch.

Emma and Kyle hold a picnic on their rooftop hiding place, and they make love. Kathy takes her driving theory test, but she's distracted by Karen's suggestion that Baz might be reincarnated, and the possibility of he's become the bee that's sitting on her monitor screen.

Tanya breaks the news to Togger, and in a slightly better frame of mind, he takes her for a coffee.
