Don doesn't know how to tell Ivy he's lost the cab. Mavis tells Derek she'd like to find a house of their own. Mike doesn't want the cab. He tells Don that he wants his £1,000 and refuses to let him pay it off on the drip. Don asks him to give him a break but Mike suggests he sells the cab. Ivy realises something is going on with Don and Mike. Don is forced to tell her about the poker game and Mike having given him a week to repay the £1,000.
