Les refuses to accept there's nothing wrong with his leg and back, telling Janice that he's hoping for compensation. Judy urges Gary to accept work from Steve but he refuses to do the dirty on Jim. Martin is furious to see Les in hospital and overhearing him saying there's nothing wrong with him. Martin accuses Les of conning the system at the expense of the taxpayers.
