Waterloo Road spoilers follow.
Next week on Waterloo Road, Donte must face the fallout from his emotional reaction to the truth about Chlo's death.
Elsewhere, Samia takes a stand against misogyny among the pupils, while Danny is reunited with his wayward mother.
Here's a full collection of seven big moments coming up.
1. Donte receives an ultimatum
Donte is called into a meeting with Kim and Joe to face the consequences of his destructive outburst in the school car park when he learned about Coral's role in Chlo's death.
Kim warns Donte that his behaviour was unacceptable and he needs to attend an anger management course if he wants to keep his job, leaving him stunned.
2. Donte's actions could have further consequences
Kim chooses not to tell the Local Education Authority about Donte's criminal behaviour on school premises, fearing that it'd make Waterloo Road look bad.
When LEA member Erica pays a visit to the school and uncovers problems, it may only be a matter of time before she discovers what else Kim has been hiding from her.
3. Samia makes a surprising discovery
Samia gets a shock when she walks into a classroom and catches her best friend Kelly-Jo kissing school troublemaker Dean.
Samia immediately expresses her disapproval, claiming that Kelly-Jo deserves much better. This sparks tension between the friends, as Kelly-Jo feels that Samia is being unfair and judgemental.
4. Tonya exposes misogyny at the school
Tonya confides in Samia about how some of the boys have been using an offensive group chat to rate the appearance of the girls. As Samia investigates it further, she discovers that various year groups are involved.
The revelation worsens the situation between Samia and Kelly-Jo, as Samia shares her suspicions that Dean is the ringleader behind the misogynistic behaviour.
5. Samia takes a stand
Samia reports the boys' offensive behaviour to deputy headteacher Lindon, but becomes frustrated when she feels that he isn't taking it seriously enough.
When the truth about who's involved in the group chat comes to light, there are shocks for the students and some relationships may never be the same.
Samia decides to stand up for what's right by protesting at the boys' basketball match. This leaves Lindon uncomfortable, but what will Kim make of it all?
6. Danny's mum turns up
Danny is pleased to have a chance to reconnect with his mum Marie when she pays a visit.
Former Emmerdale and Bad Girls actress Alicya Eyo takes on the role of Marie as a guest star.
Danny is briefly led to believe that things have changed with his mum when she seems genuinely interested in how he's doing.
However, when Marie mentions money that Danny stole from her boyfriend Vinnie, he realises that she has an ulterior motive for coming back.
7. Kai throws a party
With his parents away, Kai invites some of his friends and classmates to join him for a house party.
There are unexpected events at the party – particularly for Danny as his past comes back to haunt him.
Waterloo Road airs its next episode on Wednesday, February 8 at 8pm on BBC One. The new series is currently available to watch on BBC iPlayer.
