Zeedan’s got a plan

A curveball is thrown in the mix when Speed Daal partner Elaine calls to say she wants to sell her share in the business.
Now Zeedan needs to wash Hashim’s dirty money and buy out Elaine to keep the business in the family.
But just when he thinks the Christmas market will buy them some breathing space, their food truck goes missing.
Is Debbie up to her old tricks again?
Alya thinks so, but when she goes to call the police, Zeedan stops her and reminds her that the van is full of dirty cash.
Unfortunately for Zeedan, it doesn’t take Hashim long to find out what’s happened.
Speed Daal’s on fire!
Zeedan is terrified as Hashim lays down the law about their next move.
Without the money, the only option he has is to burn his family restaurant down.
The insurance will give Zeedan the money he needs to pay Hashim back, and there’s no way out of it.
If Zeedan chooses to ignore his orders, Hashim promises to burn Yasmeen’s house down instead.
In an impossible situation, it looks like Zeedan has got no way out.
However, when the alarm is raised that a fire has started, it’s not clear whether Zeedan did the deed or not.
He bears some responsibility no matter whether he lit the match or not, and it could cost a life.
Who is trapped in the fire, and will they get out alive?
