PlotEdit

Sally knocks Duggie down to 25% on the extra rent. He celebrates the piece in the Gazette, putting the blame for the evictions on Vinny. Vinny reads the article and is furious. Debs is upset to read his words; saying that he'll always remain true to his dead wife's memory. Jim is suprised when Michael Wall visits him in prison. Jim is pleased to see that he's worried and jealous but tells him to sort his problems out with Liz, not him. Amanda Stephens demands to know what sort of relationship Rita has with Anthony, sensing they are more than friends. Rita tells her to talk to Anthony, not her. Janice gives Les's camel coat to David for his guy, knowing Les hid the money in the coat pocket. Duggie tries to explain to Debs that he mentioned Laura in the article to win sympathy. She accuses him of making her look a mug and throws him out, telling him that they're finished. Anthony refuses to stop seeing Rita to please Amanda. Candice is embarrassed when Vik takes her to the Rovers. Vik is horrified when Rita sees her and tells him that she's only fourteen. Steve thinks the situation is hysterical. Candice runs off and is upset that it's over because Vik was gorgeous. Michael tells Liz that Steve and Jim are no longer her life. She insists she can't turn her back on them. Michael accuses her of running from him because he wants a child and she doesn't. She tells him that she belongs in Weatherfield and gives him back his engagement ring, saying she's sorry. Les panics when he can't find his coat. Janice confronts him with the money and throws his clothes at him in the Rovers, saying she never wants to see him again.
