Plot[]
Eddie buys eggs from the shop and plants them in the chicken coop. Renee feels that Alf went too far with Annie but Alf refuses to talk about it. Hilda is delighted to find nine eggs in the coop. Rita is furious that Ken got the novelties off Renee rather than her. Renee apologises to Annie and tells her that Alf isn't over the crash yet and suffers from side effects. Fred grows tired of everyone laughing at him and throws his wig away. Betty fishes it out of the bin and persuades Fred to keep it for best. Alf apologises to Annie. When she tells him Renee's explained things to her, Alf turns on Renee in the Rovers, telling her he's had enough of her and the whole street. Renee collapses in tears, unable to stand the strain any more.
