Synopsis
Ronnie pretends to Jack that the club’s doing well. Roxy realises she’s lying but when she confronts her sister Ronnie can’t swallow her pride and admit it. Roxy confides in Danny but he says if Ronnie really needed help she’d ask.
Ronnie realises how expensive fixing the electrics will be, and goes to Roxy for help. Roxy offers her a few hundred pounds, and Ronnie accepts. Later, Ronnie calls Billy with a job for him at the club. At the hospital, Ronnie tells Jack things aren’t going too well at R&R but assures him she’ll get the money for the clinic. Over at the club, smoke billows.
Jay makes Billy realise he has to take responsibility for his children. When he goes to R&R to ask Ronnie for bar work, she says no. He offers to fix the electrics but she’s too consumed in her own problems, and Billy snaps.
Later, Billy bumps into Minty who gives him an envelope from Ronnie. Inside are keys to the club, cash, and a note saying ‘call me when it’s done’.
Fatboy’s plan to help Leon get Zsa Zsa back fails, and when a livid Zsa Zsa leaves Leon chained to her gates it’s Shirley who cuts him free. In the café, Zsa Zsa’s disgusted at Leon for leaving Lucy when she miscarried.
Leon reveals that Lucy had an abortion. Later, Peter’s appalled that Ian knew about the abortion all along.
Ian’s on the warpath about Billy’s ‘borrowed’ money. Jane pays him to shut him up, but when he points out it’s technically his money she snatches it back. A cross Jane vows to earn the money herself and covers a stall to make £30. When Ian sees Billy with cash from fixing the electrics, he demands his money back. Billy quits.
