Summary[]

Cindy's playing the perfect wife. Pauline has to fight the Fowlers' corner once more, but later the family receives a shattering blow.


Mark is feeling somewhat guilty about how things were turning out with Arthur's court case and the like. He blames himself because the results of his gambling had made Arthur's situation somewhat precarious. After talking with Ruth she convinced him that perhaps now was the best time to come clean about the card game that Mark was involved in. Ruth deliberated that it would better to hear the truth from Mark than when it came out in the courts. Meanwhile, Martin was having a rough time at school with bullying because when it came to going to school he was terrified and locked himself in the bathroom. Pauline was determined to resolve the situation and she went to see the headmaster, who was somewhat patronising about her situation claiming that there were a lot of children in the school whose father's were "absent" due to terms on remand and in prison.

Janine and Clare were determined to find out what was kept beneath Felix's trapdoor. Janine manages to distract Felix, allowing Clare to sneak into the barber's and get a set of spare keys.

David meanwhile was the subject of Cindy's baiting. David thought she was merely playing games with him but on her part at least she seemed serious about staying loyal to Ian. David visits Bianca, who was busy preparing for a girl's night out with Tiffany. He then sees Carol to sort out the Christmas arrangements.

Roy has gone golfing for the day, leaving Pat free to ring the nurse who was connected with Frank and telling her that she would be going away for Christmas and would not be contactable till afterwards. It seems she is trying to give Roy the best Christmas ever.

Mark finally confesses his gambling to Pauline - she takes it better than expected but is upset that Steve wouldn't help out to confirm the gambling story. Just as they are talking about Arthur someone throws a brick through the window of Pauline's house!
