Rae and Liam wake up together, her having lost her virginity to him, and she soon leaves. She goes to visit Chloe, but is shocked to learn that she's not yet back and that the police are finally taking it seriously. Rae returns Chloe's diary to them. Rae's hesitant in enlisting the gang to search for Chloe as Archie's mad at Chop for not standing up for him, Chop's mad at Izzy for breaking up with him, and Izzy's mad at Archie for telling Chop that she kissed Peter. She gets them all in one car, but they soon end up arguing, cumulating in Izzy revealing she kissed Peter because of how Chop was treating Archie, and they go their separate ways. Rae goes to Ian's house alone, but he teases her about her weight so that she will leave. Rae returns home to find blood and her mother collapsed on the bathroom floor. She calls an ambulance which takes her to hospital. Karim arrives and convinces Rae to leave, promising her call her if they tell him anything. Rae later returns to the hospital where she learns that her little sister is okay, but her mother's still unstable. In a therapy session, Kester makes Rae believe that she's perfect by almost forcing her to imagine a younger girl - a younger Rae - and telling her what she's always telling herself. Finn visits Rae at hospital and reveals Leeds wasn't the right life for him, and he is returning to Stamford. Rae then visits her sister and tells her she's perfect. Rae returns to Ian's, this time ignoring his and Saul's words, and finds Chloe, leaving with her. They fix their friendship. She's allowed in to see her mother, who's awake, and they make up. Rae's then able to check two things off her list of things to put right: Chloe and her mum, leaving only the gang. Rae and Liam meet up in school the next day, only for her to tell him she just wants to be friends with him. Rae, Archie and Chloe are in the pub when Izzy arrives and apologises to Archie for being mad at him and they hug. Sinny shows up and makes another dig at Archie, which Chop sees. He defends Archie from Sinny, tells Archie he loves him, and kisses him. Chop then kisses Izzy and they get back together as Danny joins them, wearing only one hat. Finn then arrives at the pub, and asks Rae if they can go somewhere and talk about their relationship. Rae responds that she doesn't think it's a good idea, leaving Finn looking heartbroken, but it's revealed that Rae and Finn meet up in her room and he says this is better than talking. They then proceed to sleep together, showing Finn that she has changed and is stronger now than before.
