Curly asks Tina out but she rejects him. Deirdre decides not to resign but stick things out. Tina urges Curly to go to the banger-racing so she can watch Mark. Alma lays on a romantic meal. Mike toasts her with champagne. Deirdre attends a Planning Committee meeting but Councillor Steve Rafferty asks that Deirdre leaves the meeting, calling her a mole. The rest of the committee backs him so Deirdre leaves but under protest. Alma feeds Mike oysters. Their romantic session is ruined when she is sick. He leaves her to have an early night. Tina dumps Curly for Mark but he's not interested. Sally shows off her driving ability in the banger.
