Realising she may have no choice but to give in to Mr Davis' demands, a desperate Laura agrees to have dinner with him. Peggy moans to Sharon about giving away the drinks. Steve moans at Beppe for leaving, and then sees his face, and tells him to give him the bloke's name and address. Beppe says he deserved it anyway. Billy tells Charlie about the iron incident, and Charlie says thanks, but she won't listen to him either. However, he does ask Anthony about it and they have a knowing but oblique conversation. Anthony sees Little Mo's hand, and he looks at it carefully. He says it's infected and she will have to take antibiotics and come in to the surgery every day to get the dressing changed. He says pointedly she needs looking after. Jim avoids Dot after last night. Garry hassles Lynne about yesterday and she's worried, but then he says he wants to know what's going on. She apologises. Garry says he wants her to trust him. Lynne says Zoe has gone again, and she does love him, and she doesn't know what she'd do without him, and it will never happen again. Beppe goes to a STD clinic to be tested for everything. He sees a female doctor who asks him what his partner's symptoms are, and asks if he took precautions. He says she was on the pill. The doctor tells him to go and strip below the waist. She tells him he has NSU and asks if he would consider an HIV test too. Beppe goes to see Lynne, who is expecting Garry. He says it was wrong, but it happened. He says he doesn't want it to ruin their friendship. Lynne says she was unfaithful. Beppe promises that Garry will never know. He says he really needs a friend - and she is the only one he has. He tells her that he just had an AIDS test. She can't believe it and walks off. She says he could have given it to her. He says he knows he's made a mess of things, and he could be dying now! Lynne says coldly that there's no point worrying until he knows. Jim asks Robbie about euthanasia. Lisa asks Laura if she's OK. She says Ian's back this weekend, so everything's fine. Lisa has been to an appointment and the hospital tells her she's fine, although overdue. Charlie talks to Little Mo, who tells him that she thought that she was sent away because she had done something terrible when she was 7, and she thought he didn't love her any more - Zoe got all the attention. Charlie says tearfully he is so sorry. Charlie asks if that's why she puts up with Trevor, and she is worth much more than that. Charlie says he loves all his girls equally. He says he won't ask again, but wants the truth. Little Mo nods. Charlie tells her to pack her bags. Mr Davis comes to ask Laura for the rent, but she doesn't have it. He asks her to discuss it over dinner. She says Ian is due back. He says - it's only a business meeting. She says no and he says he's sorry he can't help her - he will contact her to pick up the keys. However, Ian phones to say he can't come back home this week. Laura immediately phones Davis. He takes her to a nice restaurant and avoids discussing business, and flirts with her. He asks her if he can come in for coffee, and they haven't discussed the money yet. He pours drinks and makes her sit next to him. He asks what he gets in return and then kisses her! Laura knees him in the groin and he gets up and says she will regret this - notice is served. Charlie goes to the Vic where Trevor is behind the bar, and goes in to attack him. As everyone watches the incident, Kat urges her father to do his worst to Trevor whilst Sharon is prepared to call the police. Trevor then retorts back to Charlie's reaction and Lynne's admission that her father is "worth ten of him" by calling him a hypocrite, then says to him "what sort of man stands by while his own brother knocks up his 13-year-old daughter?" There is a brief silence in the room before a shocked Peggy shocked asks him about it. Trevor reveals that Kat is Zoe's mother! He then tells Charlie "and you're calling me sick", as he looks guilty and mortified now that the terrible truth is exposed in public. |
