Plot[]
Toyah mopes around, missing Owen Williams. Alma is sad to think that Mike obviously doesn't love her any more. Audrey urges her to get a solicitor. Janice receives a love letter from Owen. She phones him to tell him that he mustn't write again. Nita starts at Freshco's and is furious when Ravi phones because he can't find the marmalade. Rita wraps a ribbon around The Kabin and presents it to Sharon after sorting out all the legal paperwork. Sharon is delighted, cuts the ribbon and tells Rita that she doesn't know what she'd have done without her. Janice tries to put Toyah off from keeping in touch with Owen. Mike tells Alma their marriage has to be black or white; if she doesn't want to be with him they have to divorce. She feels she can't just blot out what's happened but wants their marriage to survive. Leanne enjoys herself when Vik takes her to a casino. Mike tells Alma that if they do get back together she'll have to forget all about him and Julia Stone. His attitude annoys her and she refuses to return to him, furious that he still sees himself as the injured party. Toyah finds Owen's letter and is devastated to discover it was Janice he fancied all along. She accuses Janice of throwing herself at him and doesn't believe her when she says nothing happened. Janice begs her not to tell Les.
