Synopsis[]

Rae is invited by the boys to go to Knebworth with them to see Oasis perform. She's happy they got her a ticket until she asks Chop why he invited her, to which he replies because they consider her "one of the lads", this bums her out. She goes outside and is appalled to see Chloe in a car with their PE teacher, Mr. Carrisford, realising he is Chloe's secret boyfriend. Rae disapproves and she and Chloe argue. Chloe confides in her that she is pregnant. She then tells Rae she is going to have an abortion and is going to tell Mr. Carfisford. When out with the boys, Chop takes out Oasis t-shirts that he has got printed for everyone, with Rae's saying "Raemundo" on the back. She gets mad and refuses to try it on saying that she doesn't like the nickname. She goes to the toilets and discovers there is blood on the back of her skirt caused by her period. She covers the back of her skirt with a sheet of paper and leaves the bathroom to find everyone has left except for Finn, who has his back to her. She sneaks out without him seeing her and once outside, she drops the piece of paper and starts to walk home. A group of boys, who have bullied Rae in the past, appear and make fun of her. Finn shows up and punches the leader, and makes him apologise. As the gang runs off, Finn makes sure Rae is okay. She realises her first impression of Finn was wrong and starts to develop feelings for him. Rae goes to meet the boys to go to Knebworth and thanks Finn for what he did. Chloe is there to see them off and tells Rae that she told Mr. Carrisford about the pregnancy and they broke up. She confirms she is going to have the abortion. Rae decides to miss the concert so she can go to the appointment at the abortion clinic with Chloe. They go back to Chloe's house afterwards, and listen to the Knebworth concert on the radio. Rae tells Chloe that she wasn't really in France, and that she was ill and deliberately injured herself. Chloe begins to question Rae, asking why she would want to hurt herself, but is interrupted by a phone call. It's Mr. Carrisford and he says he wants to talk, so Chloe says she has to go to his house. She asks Rae to stay in her bedroom so her parents think that she is in, leaving Rae alone.
