Rita gets annoyed when Mavis refuses to drive the car. Bill repays Rita her £1,100. Sally Waterman's article "binman boffin spots UFO" is printed. Curly is embarrassed when everyone laughs at him. Debbie calls at No.11 and persuades Linda to show her round it. Emily convinces Curly that his friends are envious of him, and that's why they're laughing at him. Mavis manages to get behind the wheel again. Jack gives her a bill for £130 to repair the car. She is shocked as she was expecting a £30 bill. Linda gets annoyed by Debbie's pushy manner and throws her out. Rita tells Mavis Jack must be taking her for a ride. She advises her to talk to Brian about the work. A national newspaper and the local radio tell Sally they're interested in Curly's story. She asks Curly to write his own account and she'll print it word for word. He agrees. Mavis tells Jack she'll pay for the damage she caused but won't pay for the other repairs.
