The End
After terrorising the neighbourhood, Jack Michaelson is lynched by the neighbours. While all the neighbours are either in on his murder or glad of it, Nikki is the only one who feels sorry for him. Nikki then sells her house to Cinerco and decides to move to Brussels to live with her mother. One of the last scene in Brookside is of Jimmy and Nikki burning Jimmy's furniture in his front garden. During this scene, writer Phil Redmond scripts a discussion between her and Jimmy where Jimmy has a rant about reality television as well as deriding urban migration, organised religion and advocating the legalising of drugs.
