Plot
After lying to Michelle about why Peter's fallen out with him, Ciaran starts ringing loan companies. He can't get the money in time and when Nick and Eva leave him to lock up the Bistro as they're off to meet a wine supplier, his mood worsens. However, when a customer reveals that he's looking for a caterer to cover a birthday bash tomorrow, Ciaran sees a chance to cash in. Pretending he's co-owner, Ciaran does a deal, closes up and starts cooking. Meanwhile, Dennis is on edge when Norris reveals that a woman named Norma Fountain has called looking for him after seeing his name in the paper. Rita questions a clearly shaken Dennis about what she might want. Elsewhere, Stella is determined to have her share of Karl's winnings and heads out for some late night shopping; Becky's down after receiving her decree absolute from Steve and drowns her sorrows with Lloyd; while Faye feels sidelined by Anna and Owen.
