Little Mo worries that she and Alfie are not meant to be together. He assures her it's just bad luck and suggests another date. Garry and Minty's double date goes bad before it's started when Minty's date is unable to go. When Alfie hears this, he promises to find Minty a date if he can have their flat for the night.

It is the anniversary of Arthur's death and Dot shows Pauline and Martin some old photos of them all together. Martin lays some flowers at the grave and Pauline turns up at the same time. Pauline announces she's going to stay with some family for a while and then return and move out. She insists Martin and Sonia need a home of their own.

Alfie gives Minty a piece of heather so his date will recognize him. As he waits in the pub, Mickey laughs at it and passes it around. Jim clips it onto his coat just as Minty's date comes in. She spots Jim with the heather and legs it.

Martin waves Pauline off in the taxi, however as soon as the taxi's out of sight, she orders it to stop
