Concerned by Zoe’s irrational behaviour despite her new found comfort in the church, Ashley calls on Zoe with a Biblical reading plan to help her through the difficult times. But the reading plan backfires and Zoe reads demonic quotes to Joseph as she helps him create a mask for his school play. Charity is horrified and is forced to drag Joseph out of harm’s way. Zoe visits the surgery in a bid to talk herself into a positive state of mind, but the negative voices in her head are too powerful. In a fit of anger, Zoe rips up the appointment diary, targeting every entry that includes Rhona’s name. She then hits a new low and, in a bid to beat the demons in her head, seizes some tranquillisers from a shelf in the surgery. Taking a large dose, her body slumps and she collapses on to the desk.
