Summary[]
Pat admits to David that Sharon got her out of debt and she is repaying her. Geoff visits an irritable Michelle and tries to ease her tension. Grant cannot get through Phil's emotional barrier.
With Phil no longer eating or drinking properly, Kathy's concerns for him grow more than ever. Tricky Dicky makes unnecessary remarks to Kathy about their history together, knowing she is in a fragile place with Phil. Ian brings up repayment requirements to Nigel again, refusing to let him off the hook. Tricky Dicky finds Ian and uses comments on his and Kathy's history together to rile him. Binnie refuses to let Sharon dictate where she and Della can drink and warns her it is discrimination to do so - a criminal offence. Tricky Dicky's attentions turn to Cindy. David's presence at The Vic does not help Phil's drinking situation. Grant and Kathy approach Phil and manage to get a little bit of information out of him, but not enough to piece together what is tormenting him. Phil visits Pat in a drunken state, desperate to know what he can do. Ricky dislikes David's secrecy over where he is getting the money from for their new business venture. Kathy kicks Tricky Dicky out of the café after hearing from Cindy what he has been saying about her. Residents gather at the Vic to celebrate Grant's birthday. Tricky Dicky turns up for the celebrations and chooses to interfere with the Beales further. Kathy hits out at him while Ian claims he is going to get him done for slander. Tricky Dicky laughs Ian's threat off and punches him hard in the face, telling him to do him for assault instead. |
