Les tries to get round Toyah but ends up threatening her to keep her mouth shut. Fred and Ashley open their new counter in Freshco's. They tempt customers away from the tinned meat by offering samples. Natalie has the Rovers redecorated and decides the pub needs more life. Roy celebrates when he gets the coffee machine to work. Janice is annoyed when Les changes their holiday in Paris to one in Las Vegas. She insists that they go to Paris but he invites Jackie to join him in Vegas.

Toyah assures Les she won't tell anyone but makes certain he knows that she doesn't approve. Ashley tries to befriend Nita but she's not interested in him.
