Viewers will know that Nugget’s steroids came from best friend Denzel Danes (Jaden Ladega), who began taking them after being attacked by bully Logan.

With Ravi on the rampage to figure out the culprit, Denzel was clearly panicking – and soon revealed the whole truth to Zack Hudson (James Farrar), who had always suspected that something was going on with the teen boys.Denzel explained all about the attack, and how he had failed to save Yolande Trueman (Angela Wynter) from getting hurt.

Following their chat, Denzel headed to the hospital, where he finally admitted the truth, leaving Ravi furious.

It was then that the police returned, and Ravi handed Denzel over to them.

Is Denzel set to face a long prison sentence?
