Sheena first arrives in Walford on 15th of October after her taxi-cab breaks down on Bridge Street outside Al's Cafe. After asking Sue where she can get another cab from she suggest Al may be able to help and Mary, who is in the cafe at the time, escorts her over to Number 23.

Finding that Ali is out Mary invietes Sheena into her flat for a drink whilst she waits. As they are talking Sheena tells Mary about her abortion and job stating that she can make upwards £150 a week. When Mary appears impressed by this Sheena convinced Mary to take up stripping and even gave her dancng lessons.

She left the Square in disgrace when one night, whilst babysitting, Annie Sue caught her 'entertaining' a client in Mary's flat with Annie nearby.
