Plot[]
Rita is willing to return to The Kabin if she can land Len a big contract to prove she is a good businesswoman. Arnold starts a petition about the rubbish. Mavis tells Len to stop joking about with Rita and dominate her as she's tired of running the shop on her own. Bet begs Eddie to move the rubbish, telling him she could be sacked but he refuses to budge. Annie returns. Bet takes the blame for the paper but Annie also blames Betty as she was in charge. She makes them both apologise. Stan develops an itch. Bob Atkinson tells Rita about an extension he wants building on his business garage. He gives her the contract. He makes it clear that he fancies her and arranges to show her the site. Alf tells Annie that the bin situation is getting out of hand and could spread nationally unless one of the involved parties acts with wisdom and intelligence. Annie decides to apologise to the binmen for the sake of the country. Rita tells Len she's got him the contract and she'll return to The Kabin. He is annoyed that Atkinson is showing such an interest in her.
