Plot[]
Deirdre gets an interview at a travel agent but doesn't get the job because of having been in prison. She breaks down, thinking she'll never by free of Jon. Fred is amazed when Maud asks him to give her away and says she's getting married in a week's time. Ravi tells Nita that Curly has told everyone they're an item. She is horrified and tells him to put people straight before she resigns. Fred thinks Maud is going senile and tells Audrey they'll have to save her from herself. Maud introduces Sidney Templeton to them. When Sidney tells them that he wants to live in the Far East, Fred convinces himself he's a gold-digger after Maud's wealth. Curly accuses Spider of spreading rumours about him and Nita out of jealousy. Curly tells him that they're no longer friends and he won't take him to Cornwall.
