Plot
Stella’s beside herself as she explains to Leanne how she’s financially ruined. As she left the keys behind the bar unsecured for Sunita to take, she's liable in the eyes of the insurance company. She already owes money and she's going to be homeless. When Steve places some complicated bets, Rob struggles with the maths and Peter enjoys belittling him, leaving Rob fuming. Leanne wonders aloud if Karl will still around that now Stella is broke. Stella angrily defends him, saying people make mistakes. Peter and Steve have had a bet that Rob will quit before the day is out. Nick agrees to David doing Kylie's evening shifts. The reflooring of the Rovers is complete, prior to the re-plastering. Owen gets a phone call from his bank to say that Stella's cheque has bounced and he calls round on her. Karl tells him that it's a clerical error and he'll have the money in a few days. Stella confesses her money woes to Gloria who suggests they ask Leanne to invest the money she got from the bookies in the pub instead. Carla sees Peter handing Steve £20 and she demands to know what’s going on. [[Paul Kershaw|Paul arrives home with a surprise - first class rail tickets to London to see Todd. Carla and Tracy tell Peter and Rob to try and get on with each other. David returns home exhausted after a day at the salon and an evening working at the bistro.
