Jack was chuffed so came round that night but as he sat in the lounge Phil and 3 blokes arrived. Michelle then told Jack he makes her sick and if he carries on stalking her, these 4 men will make sure Jack's absence is permanent. Jack mouths off at Phil so Phil and his 3 mates rough Jack up and throw him out.
