Plot
Ashley fears he'll be sent to prison. Alma is pleased when Mike encourages her to investigate emigrating to America. Fred tells Mike about Don implicating Ashley. Mike knows Ashley is innocent and refuses to let the police suspect him. They visit the police and insist that the charges are dropped but are told Ashley needs an alibi. Mike calls Frances in to help. Ray tells Tricia how he left his wife and children, to prove he's not a saint. He tells her he still wants her to move in with him and give them a chance. Kevin is annoyed when Natalie doesn't answer his phone calls. Maxine think it's fascinating that the police suspect Ashley of arson. Angie and Mike agree on their partnership. Tricia decides to give Ray a chance and packs her bags. Jamie is won over by promises of football matches. The Duckworths are happy for Tricia but sad to see another grandson go. Rita forces Alec to give Judy £300. He explains it away as back tax. Tricia thanks the Duckworths for all their help before leaving with Jamie and Brad.
