Sally is upset as Mark and Kevin are too busy to work on the car. Dawn finds out that Maurice Jones owns pockets of land all over Weatherfield. Mike is interested. Audrey takes Alf's Montego so Sally can use it for her test. She doesn't tell Alf who thinks that the car has been stolen. Alf reports the theft to the police. Alec sends Jack a note saying that if he doesn't turn up for work he's fired. Vera tries to find him a pair of trousers. The police stop Sally during her driving test and ask her about the car. Sally passes her test when Audrey explains that the car is hers. Mike tells Maurice he knows that he owns a lot of land. Maurice tells Mike that he wants to build houses on the factory site.
