|
Janine is uncooperative with Pat at breakfast time. Michelle arranges the family meeting at her house. Ricky slacks at work. Michelle tells Pauline that she, Arthur, and Ian believe that Pete was murdered by the Chapmans. She is speechless as she digests the news. Nigel and Debbie need £500 for her divorce proceedings with Liam to continue. Nigel suggests turning to Ian for a loan, but Debbie is strongly against the idea. Steve turns to Sharon for another advance in his wages to enable him to cover the bill costs of the hairdressers. Arthur, Ian, Kathy, and Pauline arrive at Number 55 for the family meeting over Pete and Rose. Pauline concludes it should be down to her and Ian to decide where they go next with the Chapmans and ultimately chooses to let Pete rest and not take any further action. Ian breaks down as he misses his dad, and Pauline comforts him. Nigel goes against the advice of Debbie and Pat and takes out a loan from Ian. He shows Debbie the money and, without telling her where he got it from, promises her it is legit, and she is delighted. Michelle has plans for a romantic evening with Geoff, but is disappointed when he does not turn up on time. Thinking he has had second thoughts, she throws away the salad she has made, unaware that Geoff is at the Vic acquainting Arthur as he plucks up the courage to see her. Geoff then heads over to Michelle's and, delighted to see each other, they head straight to bed. |
