Plot[]
Toyah buys a teen magazine to read all about "entrapping your man". Lorraine and Spider enjoy their night together. Kevin celebrates when the solicitors draw up details to end his and Natalie's partnership. Sally doesn't know how to tell him that she's changed her mind. Ken encourages Toyah to write to the editor of Only 16 as she feels that the magazine is rubbish. He gets her to post the letter before she can change her mind. Toyah is sickened to discover Lorraine spent the night with Spider and feels as if he's cheated her. Greg presses Sally to tell Kevin he can't have the money. Taking advice from the magazine, Toyah dresses up and tries to seduce Spider but is thwarted by the ever-present Lorraine. Curly feels he lives in a vortex of nothing happening. He receives a letter from Raquel saying that she wants a divorce to marry her boyfriend, Justin. Rita panics when she can't catch her breath. She tells Alec that she's afraid she's losing her mind.
