Gail is upset when Sally is cool towards her. Ashley starts work at the corner shop, delighting in his role as defender of the women. Vera determines to get her money's worth at the party and tells Alec that he won't be an invited guest as he'll have to stay sober behind the bar. Toyah suspects Mickey Hegarty and Pete Hickman of being the thugs who robbed the shop. She thinks of shopping them when she discovers Maud is offering a reward.
