Louise’s house party horror!

SHE’S GOT BAD TASTE IN FRIENDS…

- Kate White

Louise’s so-called mates Alexandra and Madison take advantage of her this week – as they con her into throwing a party destined to go horribly wrong.

Since choosing the bullying pair over former best friend Bex, Louise has been caught up in their scheming, often doing things against her better judgement since she’s too scared to stand up for herself.

The troublemak­ing girls kick off the week by waging a war on Michelle, who is doing community service (see p30), before they spot Bex busking with Travis, the boy on whom Louise has a king-sized crush. Despite trying to be confident, Louise is a gibbering wreck as she makes conversati­on with the lad, and the awkward chat amuses her nasty pals no end. But things are about to get even worse for poor Lou when she arrives home…

“Everyone seems to forget that Louise has been to hell and back thanks to dad Phil and his battle with the booze,” says our Eastenders sneak. “So imagine how she feels when Michelle and Sharon roll home absolutely slaughtere­d. Their drunken antics bring back a lot of bad memories for Louise, and she feels more isolated than ever. It pushes her closer to Madison and Alexandra, who are terrible friends, but at least listen.”

The problem is, the bullies are plotting to use Louise yet again. They convince her to hold a girls’ night in honour of Madison’s birthday at the Mitchell house, and Louise is taken aback when Sharon agrees. She expects them to do make-up, listen to music and talk about boys, but the girls have much bigger ideas. It’s only when Bex overhears them inviting Travis to a party at the house does she realise what they have in store for their supposed friend.

“Let’s just say manicures are off the menu!” shares our spy. “But Louise only realises that as people start to pile into her home. It’s a scary situation, not least because she knows that

Louise only realises what’s happening as people start to pile into her home”

Sharon will skin her alive if the place gets trashed. But neither Madison nor Alexandra give a monkey’s about what happens to Louise – they just want a good time at her expense.”

The party quickly gets out of hand, leaving Louise struggling to control things. Will Alex and Madison’s actions have dire consequenc­es?
