Bethany asks Audrey if she can work in the salon instead of the bistro. Steve bulk-buys discount toilet rolls in a bid to save money.

Craig is too scared the steal the key on his own and Faye distracts Sophie with a story of a lad stealing flowers from the front of the shop to give him time to do it.
