Caleb peppers his daughter with questions about Ross, before trying to keep her on his side by making her a business partner at the Depot.
His recent financial dispute with Jai upsets Steph enough that Caleb offers his rival a job to appease her. Jai initially turns down the offer, before Laurel convinces him to swallow his pride and accept Caleb's job.
Jai arrives at the Depot the next day to agree to Caleb's terms, only to find out that Steph is going to be his new boss. Meanwhile, Ross turns up to ask Caleb for work.
Caleb is keen to keep the bad boy away from his daughter, so he rejects Ross and orders him to stay away from Steph.
Later, Jai comes up with a plan to get even with Caleb. He meets up in secret with Ross with an offer to team up to steal some of Caleb's stock.

Jai distracts Kerry Wyatt while Ross sneaks in to steal the stock. Ross is about to slip away with the valuable goods, but he's shocked to find Steph waiting for him.
Steph demands to know what Ross is up to, but will he come clean?
These scenes will air next week.
