Anxious about the threats, Warren turns to his mother, Norma (Glynis Barber), and urges her to take the twins out of Hollyoaks. Norma being a protective mother agrees but only after warning Warren about the potentially bigger threats that may follow. A confused Sienna (Anna Passey) unaware of what is going on, blocks their path and demands an explanation. She reluctantly leaves with the twins only after understanding that Warren is trying to keep them safe.
Just when they are out, a text message blinks up on Warren's phone warning him about a bomb being planted at the restaurant. The restaurant is scheduled for a grand opening bustling with customers, including Mercedes. Acting quickly Warren evacuates everyone outside by the time the countdown reaches zero. But when the mysterious box is opened, it reveals only party streamers inside.
