|
Della returns to the Vic at 3am. Blossom has a nightmare so heads downstairs for a drink, where she finds Robbie snacking, and Carol is also awake. The next morning, the Jacksons are tired. Bianca expresses her utmost irritation at sharing a room with Sonia. Sanjay kills the mouse with the trap he has laid for it, and puts the mouse in a black bag and carries it on him so that he can show Tricky Dicky when he next sees him. Michelle and Geoff head to the café, where Bianca and Natalie are. The teens whisper and laugh to each other about Geoff. Carol wishes she and Alan had a bigger house to accommodate everyone. Michelle checks through her post and receives a rejection from one of the workplaces she applied to. Debbie meets Nigel for a drink at the Vic, and explains that she has sent Clare off to a friend's house for the night so that they can talk, leading Nigel to have an angry outburst, thinking that she is unsafe away from them. Sharon bars him from the Vic for the rest of the day to allow him to calm down. Sanjay and Gita meet up for a drink at the café, but Gita misinterprets Sanjay's kind nature as wanting to worm his way back into the flat. As he chases her out of the café, he drops the bag with the mouse in. Robbie picks the bag up and keeps it for himself. Debbie worries for Nigel when he disappears for the rest of the day. He heads to the canal to throw stones and think about their future. Blossom enjoys her night out with Bianca and Robbie, but gets sad when she reminisces about her dead husband, so they take her home. Nigel returns home to Debbie and proposes to her. |
