Episode one opens in 1996 with Rae being introduced to her new doctor, Dr. Kester Gill, who reminds her that her old doctor requested she keep a diary for her first week out of the psychiatric hospital. Rae flashes back to when she was first released. Her mum picks her up from the hospital and on the car ride home, they run into Rae's old friend, Chloe, who invites Rae to hang out with her and her friends. Rae initially refuses, but agrees when she sees Chloe's attractive friend, Archie. Rae goes to a local pub with Chloe and is introduced to her friends, Izzy, Chop, Finn and Archie. The next day, Rae gets upset when Chloe and her friends don't call and ask her to hang out again. She goes to the pub, where she finds them. After Chloe apologises, Rae has her first conflict with Finn as they both want to choose the music. She then goes on to impress the rest of the gang with her music taste by playing Sabotage by The Beastie Boys. Her new friends invite her to a pool party and she goes shopping with Chloe for a suitable swimming costume to wear. In the changing room, Chloe's cigarette causes the fire alarm to go off, forcing Rae leave the shop in a bikini top, where she is made fun of and spotted by Archie. She then tries to return to the psychiatric hospital, where her friend, Tix, reminds her that she has a chance for a new life outside the hospital. Tix convinces Rae to go to the pool party where she finds Archie sitting outside. He confides in her that he is nervous about swimming as he's embarrassed that he has back acne. She convinces him to go in and agrees to swim if he does. When she tries to enter the pool by going down the slide, she gets stuck, showing the self-harm marks all over her legs. She laughs it off, joking about her size and gets Chop to help her into the pool. The episode ends with Chloe finding Rae's customised hospital bracelet from Tix.

"It's a Wonderful Rae Part 2" Benjamin Caron Tom Bidwell 18 February 2013 (2013-02-18)[7]
In the final episode, Rae is in a very dark place following Tix's deterioration. When she meets the gang in the Fish & Chip shop for a 'de-brief', Chop and Archie leave, and she finds herself feeling awkward after witnessing the kiss between Chloe and Finn. While Finn is in the bathroom, Chloe tells Rae that she has actually started to develop real feelings for Finn. She has a daydream about running Chloe over with a truck, but it is broken when Finn returns. The three sit in silence until Rae decides to leave, forgetting her bag. After she tells her mother she had seen Karim with another family, she finds out that Karim had not cheated on her mother, and that it was just his sister and her children. She finally realizes that she has left her diary at the Fish & Chip shop. When she goes to get it back, the woman behind the counter tells her that her "pretty" friend took it for her. She runs to Chloe's, but is too late as she has already read its contents — including insults about Chloe, Rae's love for Finn and Archie's homosexuality — and Rae is alienated from the group. Rae becomes gradually more and more depressed from having no one to talk to, and tries to commit suicide by jumping off a bridge, only to be run over by a car before she can jump. She enters a dream-like state in which Tix acts to be some sort of guardian angel and shows her what the world would be like without her. After being told that she is in a coma and that her mother, Karim, and Finn are at her beside, she agrees to wake up, only to find she is not in a coma, but still lying on the side of the road. One of the boys who had previously bullied Rae shows remorse for running her over and drives her to the hospital. Rae then goes to see Kester, and they have a heart to heart about Rae's father, who is not around, and about why she had just tried to commit suicide again. He tells her to go to her mother's wedding reception and Rae agrees, changing into the dress her mother had bought her. After Chloe tells Rae to stay away from her and her friends at the reception, Rae decides to give a speech and finally reveals the truth about herself. Chop reveals how he feels about Izzy, and Archie tries to reveal the fact that he is gay, but decides against it. Rae and Chloe make up, Chloe stating that Finn is not interested in her. When she goes looking for Finn, she finds him at the Fish & Chip shop and he tries to tell her something, but fails, so instead he uses their special language and writes "I love you" on her back. She tells him not to say it if he doesn't mean it, but he confirms that he doesn't care if she believes him or not, implying that he does in fact love her. The next day, Rae starts to make an effort to connect with Karim, and they share a tender moment in which Karim tries to explain about the birds in English, but soon converts back to French as he has no clue how to speak English. Rae goes back to Kester for her sessions, and asks whether she needs to be admitted again as she had tried to kill herself. He replies with, "No," so she asks whether she is better to which he replies again, "No." He then goes on to tell her she is in fact ready for therapy. Rae smiles knowing that she is one step closer to getting better.
