Emily's sympathetic. Ed offers to fix Rita's doorbell for her. Rita's grateful. Emily gives Fred a piece of her mind and tells him to sort out the situation with Stacy as she's worried about Rita. Stacy suggests to Fred they could make a go of it together. Although initially tempted Fred finally sees through her and realising she's using him again tells her he's throwing her out tomorrow. Stacy's gutted.
