Later, Frankie showed up at Zack’s for the driving lesson and Sharon was shocked to see she’d dressed more for a date.
Zack told Frankie he wanted to drive to the pub, but the evening ended in disaster when, with Zack tipsy, Frankie struggled to drive in the dark and ended up hitting something.
They panicked as they saw Nancy lying motionless in the street.
Zack called for an ambulance and said he’s found someone in the street unconscious and, when the police arrive, Zack repeated his story.
As Mick and Linda arrived at A&E, Zack battled a guilty conscience.
