Summary[]
Kathy tries to come to terms with Ted's revelations. Michelle receives a letter that could change her life. Carol is in grip of decorating fever, Pat wishes she'd never started.
|
Michelle gets a letter offering her the job in the US. She's pleased at first, then gets mopey and wonders whether it's the right thing to do. Mark congratulates her and is amazed that she's not sure about taking the job, since it's about ten times better than her current one. Baker comes round and threatens Ian, telling him to give his mother a message that he will be back. Ian goes to Kathy and accuses Phil of being involved in something dodgy. Kathy sighs and says it's not Phil, and she will get it sorted out. Pat is still decorating. Carol is doing well, and starts the hall now that she's done the lounge and kitchen. Gita is still hanging around Cindy as Sanjay is away. David buys a fax machine, not to be outdone by Ian, but he's totally hopeless at setting it up. Pat laughs at him when he gets it all wrong, and he finally asks Ian. Ian goes and tells Cindy what a moron David is - he tried to set it up without even reading the manual! Michelle wanders aimlessly around Walford and goes to her old school. She sees a teacher coming out and says hello. They discuss the terrible state of education in England at the moment. Then Michelle goes to Lou's grave, and finds Ethel, who offers her tea and reads her tealeaves, saying that she'll be settling down and getting a real family. Michelle says she doesn't want to, she wants to go and have a good time before settling down. Ethel says it's only a possibility of what can happen - you can always decide to do something else. Ethel then goes on about how she always took her chances and you only get one life. Michelle says yes, and goes off, a bit more positive about leaving. |
