Plot[]
Janice bumps into Les. Les apologises for his behaviour. They agree to be friends again. Mick witnesses this and is jealous. He nags Janice about speeding up her divorce. Norris is becoming increasingly worried about Monty the cat. He makes some leaflets intending to slip them into the Gazette but Rita won't let him. Against Sarah's better judgement, Tony Stewart and Jason turn up at the flat to fix the wiring. Roy and Hayley visit Tracy and try and talk her out of the abortion. Roy tells her it's his only chance of children. Tracy refuses to listen. Viv Wright, the social worker visits Sarah, Todd and Bethany. She is satisfied that Sarah is a good mother. She tells Sarah she will be visiting Gail. Peter looks after Simon again and introduces him to his first horse race on the TV. Lucy isn't impressed. Gail is annoyed when Viv tells her that Sarah is a perfectly fit mother and that the flat is adequate. Gail admits to Audrey that she contacted social services herself. Audrey is appalled that Gail shopped her own daughter. Tracy calls round to see Roy and Hayley. She tells them that in return for £20,000 she will have the baby and that they can then bring it up. They have until Friday to decide.
