Her husband tells Len there was nothing wrong with the roof and threatens to keep the ladders and tools unless Len gives him the money back. Len accuses Eddie of conning him and the customers and sacks him. Eddie is upset that Len doesn't believe him. Len believes him when Eddie describes what was wrong with the slates and takes him back.
