Ric receives a letter telling him he has to clear Leo’s flat of his belongs. He has been putting this off for weeks as he can’t face seeing how Leo lived his life while on drugs. Lola talks him into going and he wanders around the flat picking up items that had sentimental value for them both. He is appalled that Leo could have lived like this.
Lola arrives at her new job as a medical adviser at a psychiatric hospital. She is amazed by how nice the new place is as she has her own office and can even use the hospital’s money to buy paintings. As she is given a tour of the building she notices a familiar face in the gardens – Abra who has been there for the past month. Abra is pleased to see Lola but only really starts talking when she brings up Kyla’s name. Abra’s therapist, Elizabeth introduces herself to Lola and Lola explains that she and Abra use to be old colleagues at Holby City.
Meanwhile, Ric is putting belongs into bags and cleaning the flat when he hears someone enter the kitchen. Ric is confronted by Tom, a friend of Leo’s who says that he is looking after the flat and he offers to help sort Leo’s belongs out. Ric doesn’t want him there as he wants to be on his own but Tom insists on telling him stories of Leo and, as Ric wants to know more about Leo’s life, he agrees.
Lola sees her first patient, Alex, a young girl who has problems and self harms. She tells Lola that she and Abra are in love but later we see Alex visit Abra and he has no interest in her – they played chess together once, and now she won’t leave him alone.
Ric and Tom sort through Leo’s flat as Ric asks questions about Leo. Tom explains that Leo had been off drugs for more than a year and had accidently overdosed after a split with his girlfriend. He also explains that while off drugs he was working for a drop-in centre where he was helping others like himself. Ric looks surprised and almost proud that Leo’s drug addiction had led to him helping others. Tom offers to show Ric the drop-in centre and meet with some of the people he had helped.
Lola tries to find out more about Abra’s progress from Elizabeth who informs her that ‘Percy’ isn’t ready to leave yet. She knows more about him than anyone else as she is his mother. Lola, believing that Elizabeth is keeping Abra there for her own benefit, calls Kyla to tell her where Abra is.
Ric sees the centre were Leo worked and his colleagues tell him that he was a great man who really wanted to help people. Ric is starting to see Leo in a totally new light.
