Plot[]
Deirdre rows with Mike for not telling her about his affair with Linda. She tells him that she's been put in an impossible situation and asks him to get rid of her. He makes her feel guilty by reminding her about how much he did for her when she was in prison. She backs down when he assures her that he'll keep Linda under control. Alma visits her solicitor, wanting to bleed Mike dry. Gail pays Leanne in £50 notes and tells her that she wishes Nick had left her in the gutter. Deirdre realises that Linda isn't going to change and resigns from Underworld, annoying Mike. Alison is annoyed that Linda didn't tell her about her affair with Mike. Vik is horrified when Leanne blows all her £2,000 at the casino. She's not bothered though, feeling that she's finally got Nick out of her system.
