Plot[]

Martha is puzzled as to why Emily is at the bar of the Rovers when she doesn't drink. Ena questions her and hears that Swindley has disappeared. Emily tells her that recent events aren't Swindley's fault and almost passes out in her panicked state. The regulars reassure her that everything will be alright in the morning though they are secretly worried about what has happened. A dazed Swindley wanders round an amusement arcade. After closing, Harry brings Len back for supper, not certain if he told Concepta beforehand, and is relieved to find that he had. Lucille comes back late from her date with Eddie, having seen Swindley almost step into the path of the traffic. PC Page finds the door of Gamma Garments open late at night and Swindley within. He blames Doreen for the error, puzzling the policeman who knows she no longer works there. Swindley quotes scripture to himself as he packs his belongings and leaves, with the shop door still open. The next day, Florrie takes Len to task for the delays on the corner shop. She breaks down in tears when he replies brusquely to her. Emily assures PC Page that nothing is missing from the shop. She plans to get Myra to cover for her while she visits Swindley's house but when Val passes the message on, Myra's delayed by a pre-booked chimney sweep's appointment. Dennis asks her about getting a birthday present in for Elsie. His mother is suspicious when he questions her about the event. Seeing how worried Emily is, Ena looks after the shop for her. Elsie is her first customer, shopping for a pair of nylons, and Ena happily overcharges her by three shillings. Emily finds Swindley at home, again talking about Doreen in the shop and worrying about rationing and trying to find a childhood book - he's had a breakdown.
