Louise has absolutely no idea what’s going on, why Mel is back or what she’s trying to find out, and happily tells Mel just about everything.

In fact she is so unaware, that she invites Mel back to her house, giving her the perfect opportunity for a good look round.

That is until Phil’s wife Sharon arrives home to find Mel in her house.
