First thing in the morning, Albert is grumpier than usual with the milkman and Stan. Ray is depressed about the contract while Len is more upbeat. They resolve not to tell Emily what they're up to. Ernie tells Ena his plans to do up the camera shop while a troubled Emily watches on. Emily confesses the full story to Ena and that she faces eviction when Piggott cancels the lease when he discovers he's not won the contract. Alan asks for Cyril's help to appeal the driving fine he's been given. Cyril is not pleased when Stan asks for his help in detecting who shopped him in. Albert rails that he was born too soon to enjoy the affluent society. Len and Ray enjoy telling Piggott that Roscoe & Pitts got the student hostel contract, much to Emily's relief. A scared Hilda tells Stan that she knows nothing about who shopped him.
