Plot[]
Gail receives her decree nisi. She is upset and breaks down in tears. Martin comforts her. Susan asks Ken for discount on an advertisement. He refuses to give her discount just because she's his daughter; he knows Mike will be paying. Gail realises that she was happy being married to Brian and now feels abandoned. She doesn't know what's to become of her. Mike refuses to let Susan spend another £200 on advertising, telling her that she's over budget. Susan feels that both Ken and Mike are pathetic for not having faith in her. Alan entertains Rita at his hotel. He tells her that he's not going back to Dubai and asks her to marry him. She tells him that she doesn't want to commit herself to marriage again. She wants to go on as they are. He doesn't understand; he didn't think she could be choosy as she's getting on. She is hurt.
