Rich, the second episode of Skins UK season 6, follows the main character Rich as he deals with the aftermath of his girlfriend Grace's death. The episode begins with Rich sitting in his bedroom, surrounded by the ashes of his beloved Grace. He is struggling to cope with her loss and is dealing with feelings of guilt, anger, and sadness.

Throughout the episode, Rich's friends try to help him through his grief, but he remains closed off and distant. He spends a lot of time alone, listening to music and contemplating his life without Grace. Rich's father, who is also his history teacher, tries to reach out to him but is continuously shut down.

As the episode progresses, Rich begins to have vivid and surreal dreams about Grace. In one dream, she appears to him as a mermaid swimming in a pool. In another, she arrives at his house dressed as an angel. These dreams show the depth of Rich's longing for Grace and his inability to move on from her death.

Meanwhile, the rest of the cast is dealing with their own problems. Mini, who is pregnant, is struggling to connect with her boyfriend Nick. She spends most of her time planning parties and ignoring her impending motherhood. Franky, who is exploring her sexuality, has a crush on her female teacher and is trying to navigate her feelings.

In a particularly poignant moment, Rich attends Grace's funeral and delivers a eulogy where he expresses his love for her and his guilt over her death. The scene is emotional and showcases the complexity of grief and loss.

As the episode draws to a close, Rich has a breakthrough and begins to process his emotions. He decides to make a memorial for Grace and invites his friends to help him scatter her ashes in a meaningful way. The group commemorates Grace's life by painting a mural of her and releasing her ashes into a river.

Overall, Rich is a heartbreaking and emotional episode that deals with the themes of grief, loss, and remembrance. The episode is well-acted and thoughtfully written, with a focus on realism and genuine emotion. It is a standout episode in the series and a testament to the show's ability to tackle difficult subjects with depth and sensitivity.
