Frankie wanted to escape the village and attended a dance school. However, when JJ found out, he hit back and informed the sister’s parents to stop Frankie from going to the audition.

In tonight’s first episode, the family prepared to celebrate Nancy’s birthday, but Frankie stuck to her plans. She tried to talk Darren, Nancy and Suzanne into it, but stormed off when they wouldn’t budge.

Darren followed her into the village, remembering a story from his youth where he chased his dreams and Frankie begged him to give her the same chance. He finally agreed and a delighted Frankie skipped along the way to school.

She then told a jealous JJ that Darren let her go, but she spoke too soon as her father failed to convince Nancy. After Darren praised JJ, Frankie freaked out and revealed that all of her problems stemmed from her brother, inadvertently revealing that she was responsible for Morgan’s hospitalization.
