Harold's
Callum offers to buy Rani an orange juice, but Harley steps in and volunteers to buy it instead, saying he just got paid by Kyle. While he pays, Callum tries to show Rani a video on his phone, but she can't see it without her glasses, and is embarrassed to put them on. Harley overhears and opines that it's 'awesome' she wears glasses. As they talk, Callum tries to establish whether Harley has a girlfriend - he doesn't. Rani seems pleased.

Kate is getting a coffee before her first day back at Erinsborough High. She admits to Susan she's feeling sick - and Susan says the kiss with Noah might be old news by now. She suggests that if Kate gets any trouble from the kids, she should take the heat out of the topic by admitting to the pupils she made a mistake and tell them she is moving on.
Erinsborough High (outside)
Kate rolls up on her bike, and notices some graffiti referring to her kiss with Noah. As she locks up her bike, Priya welcomes Kate back and asks her to cover a double PE class later. She tells Kate that Harley will be with them for the term, but asks him to keep an eye out as he was expelled from his old school. Priya adds she's glad Kate's back and says she can come to her office any time if she needs anything.

Andrew is at his laptop, researching cars on the Internet. Chris and Summer come in and don't speak to him - Andrew looks gutted. He decides to bite the bullet and say hello, asking Chris how work's going without his licence, then asking him if he could give him some advice on buying a new car. Chris and Summer get up to leave.
CHRIS: Another time, maybe.
SUMMER: You're looking to spend a bit of the cash from the app, are you?
ANDREW: Just looking to get a car, thought Chris might be able to help.
SUMMER: Hmm. So you're getting on the road, just like that?
ANDREW: Summer, I don't want to fight with you.
SUMMER: No, it's good for you Andrew. It's not like we were all nearly killed in a car crash or anything.
CHRIS: Let's just go, hey, Summer?
SUMMER: Why don't you give Chris some of that money? He could use it to fight off your dad's lawsuit.
CHRIS: Summer!
ANDREW: No. Don't worry. You stay. I'll go.

Andrew pulls up in an expensive-looking car. He scrolls down his phone for Chris's number, but then looks sad and puts his phone away. Paul comes out of the house and asks what he's doing with the flash car. Andrew's just test-driving it but is thinking of buying it. However, Paul suggests he does something wiser with the money from the app, such as investing it in Robinson Entertainment. Paul says he wants Andrew to put some business proposals together and show him what he comes up with.

Kate introduces herself to Harley and welcomes him to the school. Once she's gone, Harley remarks to Callum how hot she is. Cal's more interested in talking about video games, but Harley's forced to admit he doesn't have a laptop or a console. Noticing Harley staring at Rani, Callum tries to distract him by telling him about Kate kissing Noah and being suspended. Harley thinks it's 'awesome', and thanks Cal for the heads-up.

Paul goes to work and tells Andrew to call him when he's ready to pitch his ideas. Cue a 'business montage', as Andrew works hard to come up with a raft of entrepreneurial ideas to impress his dad... cut short by a dizzy spell and a blackout.
Later, Andrew wakes up on the floor, with an overturned chair and a split lip. Paul rings his mobile and he grapples for the phone, but misses the call. Bewildered, he gets to his feet; the phone rings again. He tells Paul he's still working on his ideas and that he'll call him back. He then starts up his webcam and begins recording himself as he works, restraining himself from calling his dad again.

On the school playing field, Kate shows off her soccer skills to the kids, including Cal, Rani and Harley, as she covers the PE lesson. But Harley starts showing off, dribbling with the ball while she's trying to demonstrate and trying to make the class laugh. She takes him aside, chastises him for being rude and tells him to sit out the game while she works with the others.
HARLEY: You miss that Noah kid, Miss?
KATE: What did you just say?
HARLEY: Heard the stories.
No 22
Andrew's still trying to work, but can't help watching himself on the webcam, waiting for another blackout. Paul comes in, and notices the cut on Andrew's lip, but he says it's a shaving cut. Andrew begins showing Paul the ideas he's been working on.
Erinsborough High (outside)
On the playing field, soccer guru Kate starts off a match, encouraging the kids to pass the ball to their teammates, rather than hogging it. Harley makes inappropriate comments to her on the sideline.
HARLEY: You and I make a good team, Miss... You show me your moves, I'll show you mine.
KATE: You can't talk to me like that, I'm your teacher.
HARLEY: It's just a joke, Miss. They're just jokes. Don't you have a sense of humour?
Kate's had enough and calls everyone into the middle of the pitch. Harley's still wise-cracking but she tells him to shut up and show her some respect.
KATE: Now we all know what happened when I was here last. I broke the rules. I kissed a student. But I know I shouldn't have done that - it was a mistake and I'm sorry that I made it. But who here hasn't made mistakes? Now this is the last time that I'm going to bring this up. So if you have anything to say, you say it right now.
No-one says anything, so Kate puts Harley on detention and asks the others to play on. Rani's confused as to why Kate's getting at Harley, and Callum looks worried.
Later when the lesson's finished, Cal runs over to Harley, and says he shouldn't have told him about Kate and Noah. Harley thinks Kate's a bit of a psycho. Still worried about Rani, Callum tells Harley that she's 'almost' his girlfriend, and Harley guesses Cal's worried that Harley might be interested in her. Harley reassures him that he wouldn't do that to a mate, and they shake hands.
Later still, after school, Kate tells Priya everything went okay and that there was nothing she couldn't handle - that is until she sees that the wheels of her bike have been removed and flung on the roof! All the pupils are highly amused, and Priya demands to know who's responsible. Kate thinks it was Harley, as revenge for giving him detention. Priya prepares to deal with it but Kate asks if she could leave it to her. Priya agrees, but says Kate must come to her if there are any further problems.
Lassiter's Complex
Rani is outside Ajay's office when Harley turns up. She claims she's helping her dad move his stuff out, but Harley teases her, implying she doesn't seem to be doing much. Harley's shocked to learn Rani has never had detention, and that her mum is the principal. Harley politely introduces himself to Ajay before leaving, and Ajay seems impressed, remarking as Harley leaves that he seems like a nice kid. Rani watches, smiling, as Harley walks away.

Paul tells Andrew he's impressed with his business ideas, particularly a plan he's put together for an indie music label. Paul says he's proud of Andrew and goes for a shower, saying they can crunch some numbers afterwards. Andrew is thrilled - but as he grabs some food from the fridge, he blacks out again, drops to the kitchen floor and begins shaking uncontrollably. When he wakes up later, he realises the webcam was still on, and is horrified to watch a replay of what happened.
