Plot
Fiz is delighted when Toyah and the factory girls make a fuss of her for her eighteenth birthday. Fiz confides in Toyah that Kirk is her boyfriend. Toyah has a word with Kirk and he buys her a surprise present. Fiz is ecstatic. Geena agrees to Joe's plan. She later tells Sunita about their plan to deceive Dev. Roy makes Fiz a birthday cake. Fiz's mother doesn't even send a card. Richard, Audrey and Gail go to the garage where Audrey has seen Richard's car. Richard is hugely relieved to find out they sold it that morning. He pretends to Audrey that it was a different car. Audrey again thinks she's going mad. Mike does his talk at the school about running a business. Aidan tries to heckle him but Mike isn't put off. Vik picks up Mickey Edwards again. He tells the other drivers that there were no tips this time. Sunita is angry to think that Geena and Joe are being dishonest with Dev and lying to him. Geena tells her that Dev is no angel and that he had a brief affair with Deirdre. Sunita is aghast.
