Episode 2886 (28th November 1988)

Plot[]

Sandra feels that Pete Shaw has gone off her. Jenny tells Rita that Alan is moving out of their lives. She begs Rita to do something to stop him. Terry advises Mike to forget all about the graffiti. Mike discovers that his girlfriend Jenny's husband is definitely in Kuwait. Mike tells Terry he's worried about security; the married man might turn up and wreck the place. He gets Terry to spend the night in the factory guarding it. Rita calls on Alan and tells him that he's hurting Jenny by staying away. He feels he has nothing to offer Jenny. He tells her that she has to stop hiding behind the trauma of widowhood, saying she was a sexual iceberg and they had nothing in common. She wants things to be as they were and begs him to return to her; she can't live without him. She promises she'll change and marry him if he wants her. He tells her that she'll never change and he'll never return. She's terrified of the future and pleads with him to give her another chance. Betty asks Gloria if, as she suspects, she's seeing Pete behind Sandra's back. Gloria admits she is and doesn't know what to do. Betty tells her that she must tell Sandra.
