Dev warns Dominic Saul that Julie is mad-mad and sleeps with her nine cats. Sophie is appalled by his tactics. Gavin lies to Michael that he has a burst pipe in his flat to stop him from coming over. Michael thinks he's blown it when Gavin loses his patience and tells him to leave him alone. In his flat, Gavin worries about unpaid bills. Lloyd tries to talk sense into Steve. He thinks he's got through to him when Steve announces he's going to sort things out, although he's actually referring to his car. Tyrone tells Steve the cost of repairs is more than the car is worth. Steve tells him to go ahead with the work regardless. Liz re-arranges the rota to put Michelle together. Craig shows Norris how to download an astronomy app. Norris is fascinated by his new hobby. Gavin apologises to Michael for snapping at him and pretends he has to settle a huge plumber bill. Gavin gives him £100. Michelle is upset when Steve is polite to her at work and walks away when she tries to draw him into a conversation. Tracy has a go at Michelle for hounding her over the money she owes her. Liz is surprised when Tony defends Tracy. Steve's unfeeling attitude gets to Michelle.
