Dave sees the school turn on him, but continues to ask why Adam should get special treatment. When he attempts to enter the girl's washroom wearing a skirt, he gets into a fight with Adam. Principal Simpson gives them both detention, and Adam likens the transgender issue to racism, which causes to Dave to give a formal apology. Clare continues to bag Katie for a position on the newspaper, and when Sav intervenes, Katie invites Clare to join, but gives her the job of following the school play. While Fiona tries to reach out to a distant Charlie, she gets the directing position of the play, and invites Charlie to live with her.
