Ravi met up with Jack and told him he had been asked to do a pick-up of drugs and meet a new contact today \u2013 but Mark spied their covert conversation.<\/p>\n

He got a shock when he discovered that the new contact was Mark, who gave him the details for the pick-up. Mark used the opportunity to question him about why he was pally with Jack, and Ravi was left rattled.<\/p>\n

Ravi wondered whether Mark had been sent to test him, and his new colleague confirmed that he would have a few more jobs for him in the coming days and weeks.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, in Ravi\u2019s absence, Priya agreed to take Nugget out for a driving lesson herself. As they headed out to the car, Nugget zoned out once again and started experiencing a painful headache.<\/p>\n
