Episode 7386 (23rd July 2010)

Plot
It's Audrey's birthday and Lewis plays the charmer, while at the same time tries to slow her plans for the future down a pace. Audrey, however, is head over heels and even the surprise party doesn't faze her.

Audrey's delighted to see Maria back on the Street but when Claudia sweeps in, Audrey seethes. Claudia's claws are out as she watches the happy couple and after too many drinks, she fills Gail in on Lewis's past.

Meanwhile, Eileen's determined to take hold of her life and informs Steve and Lloyd that she wants to buy into Street Cars. When she overhears them scoffing at her idea, however, she quits her job, although her decision is soon followed by a phone call from her landlord, announcing an increase in her rent.

Elsewhere, needing time alone to be a couple, Sian and Sophie ask Ryan if they can buy his festival tickets. He's still annoyed at them but eventually agrees.

Natasha plans to buy the salon.
