Plot[]
Gary is in the Gazette but Judy isn't pleased to see Mrs Hardy all over him in the photograph. Steve asks Jim for £800 to help him start up a new business, smuggling tobacco. Toyah is forced to revise at Emily's house as No.5 is too noisy. Mike is uncomfortable having Linda at the factory as he doesn't want the girls to know his business. She offers to resign if it would help but he tells her that it's alright so long as she's discreet. Sally is summoned to see Rosie's teacher, Mrs Easton, who shows how Rosie's work has become dark and sinister. Sally is horrified when she's told that Rosie isn't being bullied; she's the bully. The teacher says she's insecure and seeking attention, annoying Sally who takes it as criticism. Jim worries about Steve ending up in prison again but Gary advises him to help Steve all he can. Sally tells Kevin they have to stop fighting and make Rosie feel more secure. Leanne is appalled when the Battersbys entertain Vik for his tea. Les encourages her to see him as his father is wealthy. To cheer her up, Curly cooks Alma a meal of spaghetti. She starts to cry over her wasted marriage. Steve is relieved when Jim agrees to lend him the money. Mr Hardy has a go at Gary and warns him to stay away from his wife.
